Regulator investigations

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.

What the maker told its dealers

Service bulletins are the manufacturer's own repair guidance to dealers, filed with NHTSA. A bulletin is not a defect finding; the count rises with how many things a maker writes down, not only with how many go wrong.

Eagle filed 9 bulletins about the 1996 Summit.

1 more.

Grouped by NHTSA's top-level system; a bulletin filed under a sub-heading counts toward its system.
