Decode VINs and fetch vehicle recall records from public NHTSA APIs, then return normalized Apify dataset rows. This Actor is useful for automotive marketplaces, fleet operations, due-diligence workflows, data enrichment, lead scoring, and vehicle safety monitoring.

Use cases

  • Decode VINs into make, model, year, body class, engine, fuel, and manufacturing details.
  • Pull NHTSA recalls for make/model/year combinations.
  • Batch vehicle safety enrichment into a repeatable Apify run.
  • Export vehicle intelligence to CSV, JSON, Excel, webhooks, or downstream systems.

Input

{
"vins": ["1HGCM82633A004352"],
"recallQueries": [
{ "make": "Honda", "model": "Accord", "modelYear": "2003" }
],
"includeRaw": false,
"maxItems": 1000
}

Both vins and recallQueries are optional, but at least one should be provided for useful output.

Output

VIN decode rows:

{
"recordType": "vin-decode",
"vin": "1HGCM82633A004352",
"make": "HONDA",
"model": "Accord",
"modelYear": "2003",
"bodyClass": "Coupe",
"engineCylinders": "6",
"fuelTypePrimary": "Gasoline"
}

Recall rows:

{
"recordType": "recall",
"make": "HONDA",
"model": "ACCORD",
"modelYear": "2003",
"campaignNumber": "19V182000",
"component": "AIR BAGS",
"summary": "..."
}

If an upstream request fails, the Actor writes a structured error row and continues with the remaining VINs or recall queries.

Notes

This Actor uses public NHTSA endpoints and does not require an API key. It is a data enrichment tool, not a substitute for official safety checks or legal compliance processes.
