## 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 vehicle-safety-recalls-lookup-94631cc8
```

Example prompt: Can you check if there are any open safety recalls on a 2019 Toyota Camry? I want to know what components are affected and what the remedy is.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, regulator-published safety recall data for a specific vehicle or campaign number. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured recall records (campaign numbers, components, remedies) rather than news articles. It complements the sibling VIN decoder and TSB endpoints on the same service for a complete vehicle diagnostic workflow.

## Known failure modes

- No recalls found for the specified make/model/year — returns empty list
- Invalid or unknown campaign number — returns error or empty result
- Unrecognized vehicle make or model string — may return no results
- Missing required query parameters (make, model, year, or campaign number) — returns validation error
- Regulator data source temporarily unavailable — upstream fetch failure

## How this service works

Open safety recalls for a vehicle, by make/model/year or by campaign number, as published by the manufacturer's regulator.

## Output

A list of open safety recall records for the queried vehicle or campaign, each including the campaign number, component name, defect description, potential risk/consequence, remedy description, manufacturer name, and dates associated with the recall as published by the vehicle safety regulator (e.g. NHTSA).
