About Recall Check
Recall Check searches the four US government agencies that handle recalls in one place: the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) for home, baby and kids products, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for food, medicine and medical devices, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA FSIS) for meat, poultry and eggs, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for cars, trucks and motorcycles.
Normally you would have to search each agency's website on its own. Here, one search checks them all, live, and every result links to the official notice so you can confirm it yourself.
NyNeon is not a government website. All recall data comes directly from the official public databases of these agencies.
Frequently asked questions
What is a recall?
A recall is when a company, usually together with a US government agency, announces that a product it sold is unsafe or faulty. Owners are told to stop using it and get a refund, repair or replacement, usually free of charge.
Which recalls does Recall Check search?
It searches CPSC recalls for home, baby, kids and consumer products, FDA recalls for food, medicine and medical devices, USDA FSIS recalls for meat, poultry and egg products, and NHTSA recalls for vehicles.
Is this an official government website?
No. Recall Check is a free tool made by NyNeon. The data is pulled live from the official public databases of CPSC, FDA, USDA and NHTSA, and each result links to the official notice.
What do FDA recall classes mean?
Class I is the most serious: the product could cause serious health problems or death. Class II may cause temporary or reversible health problems. Class III is unlikely to cause harm but breaks FDA rules.
What should I do if something I own is recalled?
Stop using it, check the lot number or model on the product against the notice, and follow the steps in the official notice. Companies usually offer a free refund, repair or replacement.
How do I check if my car has a recall?
Use the Vehicles tab and choose the model year, make and model. To check one exact car, enter its VIN on NHTSA.gov or in the NyNeon VIN decoder.
Why can I not find a recall I heard about?
Try the brand name, the company name or a shorter product word, such as "crib" instead of "convertible baby crib". Very new recalls can take a day or two to appear in the government databases.
How often is the data updated?
Searches run live against the agencies' databases. The latest recalls list refreshes every few hours.
Does it cover recalls outside the US?
No. Recall Check only covers products recalled in the United States.
Is Recall Check free?
Yes. It is free with no sign up and no limits for normal use.
Recall data from the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, Food and Drug Administration, Department of Agriculture and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. NyNeon is not affiliated with any of these agencies.
How US recalls work, and where this recall check looks
How this recall check works
Use this free recall check to search US recalls for food, medicine, baby gear, home products and cars in one place.
This recall check searches the official databases of the four US agencies that handle product recalls, so you do not have to visit each website on its own. A recall is announced when a product is found to be unsafe or faulty, and owners are told to stop using it and get a refund, repair or replacement, usually free of charge.
- Home, baby and kids products: the Consumer Product Safety Commission covers cribs, strollers, toys, furniture, heaters, chargers and most things in your home.
- Food, medicine and medical devices: the Food and Drug Administration rates each recall as Class I, II or III. Class I is the most serious and means the product could cause serious harm.
- Meat, poultry and eggs: the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service handles recalls of beef, chicken, pork and egg products.
- Cars, trucks and motorcycles: the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists vehicle recalls by model year, make and model.
To get the best results, search for the brand, the company or one simple product word, such as crib, peanut butter or space heater. When you find a match, compare the lot number, model number or best by date on your product with the official notice before you throw anything away. Every result links to that notice.
Run a recall check before you buy secondhand baby gear or a used car, and again whenever you hear about a recall in the news. Many people never receive a recall letter, especially when they bought the item used or moved house.
