## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability oneshot-agent-api-vehicle-recall-lookup-39f6c144 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check if there are any NHTSA safety recalls on a 2019 Honda CR-V? Show me up to 10 results with the recall summary and what the remedy is.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, per-recall detail from NHTSA data including campaign numbers, remedies, and component-level information. Ideal for pre-purchase vehicle checks, fleet safety audits, or consumer awareness queries. Costs only $0.005 USDC per call with no API key required, making it lightweight for agent workflows that need on-demand recall lookups.

## Known failure modes

- No recalls found for the specified make/model/year combination — returns empty recalls array
- Invalid or unrecognized vehicle make or model — may return empty results or error
- Model year outside supported range (1950 to next year) — validation error
- Malformed request payload — 400-level error
- Payment failure over x402 — no USDC or insufficient balance results in 402 response

## How this service works

List the safety recalls issued for a vehicle make, model and model year.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the vehicle make, model, model year, total recall count, and an array of recall records. Each record includes the campaign number, summary of the defect, affected component, consequence of the defect, recommended remedy, whether the fix is over-the-air, whether the vehicle should be parked outside or not driven, and the date the recall was reported.
