More than 300 safety recalls have already been recorded this year across over 100 manufacturers, according to figures compiled from NHTSA data, and household names like Ford, Jeep, Honda, Toyota, Kia, Subaru, and Nissan are all represented. The reassuring part: every recall repair is legally required to be free, and finding out whether your car is affected takes one VIN lookup. Here are the campaigns worth knowing about.2026 Jeep Wrangler RubiconKristen BrownThe Biggest Single Campaign: Jeep Wrangler and GladiatorThe standout by sheer volume is a June recall from Stellantis covering roughly 1.08 million Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator vehicles over a power-steering wiring fault that can create a fire risk even with the vehicle switched off. NHTSA has linked the defect to dozens of fires. If you own a recent Wrangler or Gladiator, this is the one to check first.Ford's Rollaway Recall2020 Lincoln NavigatorLincolnFord issued a major campaign (NHTSA ID 26V402) over a transmission software fault that can damage the park mechanism and let a vehicle roll away. It covers 2018–2021 Expedition and Lincoln Navigator, 2020–2021 Explorer and Lincoln Aviator, and 2021 F-150 models, some of the highest-volume vehicles on the road.Cadillac's Seat-Entrapment RecallGM recalled all 14,540 Cadillac Vistiq electric SUVs (26V394) because the power-folding third-row seat can fail to reverse and trap a smaller occupant. New-vehicle sales were paused while a fix is prepared.2026 Cadillac VistiqCadillacHonda's Rust-Belt Suspension RecallHonda called back Pilot, Ridgeline, Passport, and Acura MDX models concentrated in the 23 states that use road salt, over a rear suspension component that can corrode and fail, affecting handling.Nissan's Sentra Driveshaft RecallNissan recalled 946 examples of the 2025 Sentra (26V410) over a driveshaft that can cause power loss and rollaway, one of several campaigns keeping the compact sedan in the news this year.How to Check Your VehicleFind your 17-digit VIN on the driver's side dash where it meets the windshield, or on your registration, and enter it at NHTSA's recall lookup. If an open recall turns up, call your local dealer to schedule the free repair. If your car ever falls under a "do not drive" or "do not park indoors" warning, treat it as urgent and ask the manufacturer about towing or loaner options.AdvertisementAdvertisementThis story was originally published by Autoblog on Jul 13, 2026, where it first appeared in the News section.
