## 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 x402-factory-vehicle-recalls-a5eaa0e7
```

Example prompt: Show me the latest vehicle recalls from the past 30 days, up to 10 results, and flag anything with Class I severity.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need vehicle-specific recalls pre-filtered from the broader multi-category recalls feed, saving you from client-side filtering. Prefer this over the general /v1/recalls endpoint when your use case is exclusively automotive/vehicle safety. Ideal for consumer safety apps, automotive platforms, fleet management tools, or compliance monitoring agents that only care about the vehicle category.

## Known failure modes

- No recalls match the given query or date filter — returns empty recalls array
- Invalid 'since' date format causes validation error
- 'limit' value out of range (must be 1–50) causes 400 error
- Payment of $0.01 USDC not received — 402 Payment Required response
- Service temporarily unavailable from upstream government data sources — 503 error

## How this service works

Latest vehicle recalls (FDA/USDA/CPSC normalized) — Latest vehicle recalls across FDA, USDA FSIS, and CPSC in one normalized schema, with severity classing and product details. Same shape as /v1/recalls, pre-filtered to the vehicle category.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing an array of vehicle recall records, each with: agency (FDA/USDA/CPSC), product name, brand, hazard description, remedy, severity class (I/II/III), recall date, category (vehicle), and a URL to the official recall notice. Also includes a meta object with query context.
