Recalls
Filed by the manufacturer with a regulator. A recall is repaired free of charge, whoever owns the car now.
81% of 2014 cars have more recall campaigns than this one, and an ordinary one has 4. More of them means more to check the service record for, not a worse car.

Opened by NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation. An investigation is a question the regulator asked about a possible defect, not a fault it found — most end without a recall.
