How this service works

RecallScout recall lookup (active US recalls across FDA, NHTSA and CPSC with normalised severity)

Output

Returns a list of active recall records with fields including recall ID, date, firm name, product description, hazard, reason, remedy, source agency (FDA/NHTSA/CPSC), severity rating, and severity basis. Also returns aggregate fields: total active count, worst severity across results, whether any recalls were found, and which sources were queried or failed.

Example use cases

Car safety check before purchase

“Before I buy a used 2019 Toyota RAV4, can you check if there are any active NHTSA recalls on it and tell me how serious they are?”

Food safety alert for a pantry item

“I just saw news about peanut butter recalls — can you look up any active FDA recalls for Jif peanut butter and tell me the hazard and severity?”

Children's product safety verification

“Is the Fisher-Price Rock 'n Play sleeper still under an active CPSC recall? I need the severity and what parents are supposed to do about it.”

When to prefer

Use this endpoint when you need a single unified recall lookup across all three major US safety agencies (FDA, NHTSA, CPSC) with normalized severity ratings. Prefer this over manually querying individual agency APIs when you need a consistent data schema and severity classification in one call. Best for consumer safety checks, product due diligence, and compliance monitoring workflows.

Side effects

One or more recall data sources (FDA, NHTSA, CPSC) may fail to respond, indicated in sources_failed array
No matching recalls found for the query (recalled: false, active_count: 0)
Ambiguous query may return broad or unrelated results
Payment failure for x402 micropayment may block access
API may return incomplete results if complete flag is false
