## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative U.S. federal (NHTSA) crash test star ratings for a specific vehicle. Prefer this over web scraping or general search when you need structured, reliable safety data for a known make, model, and year combination, especially in automotive purchase-assistance, fleet safety evaluation, or consumer advisory contexts.

## Known failure modes

- Vehicle make/model/year combination not found in NHTSA database — no ratings available
- Model year out of supported range (before 1990 or beyond next year)
- Specified variant text does not match any rated variant — falls back to first available variant or returns error
- Make or model string too short, too long, or contains invalid characters
- Ratings not yet published for a very recent model year

## How this service works

Give the federal crash test star ratings of a vehicle make, model and model year.

## Output

Returns the NHTSA federal crash test star ratings for the specified vehicle, including overall safety score and potentially individual ratings for frontal, side, and rollover tests, along with vehicle variant information used for the lookup.
