What these reports are, and are not

Source: 49 CFR 579.21

The manufacturer’s own quarterly report

Under NHTSA’s Early Warning Reporting rule, Toyota must report every claim or notice it received alleging a death or injury in one of its vehicles: the model and model year, the incident date, the state, how many were killed or injured, and the systems the claimant named. The manufacturer files it; NHTSA publishes it.

An allegation, as received

A row is a lawsuit, a claim letter or a consumer notice that named a death or injury. It is not a finding that the vehicle caused anything, and NHTSA does not verify it. The systems named are the claimant’s, not an engineer’s.

Counts scale with sales

A model that sold two million will have more reports than one that sold fifty thousand. These pages count; they do not rank. Set a figure against the model’s production and its peers before reading anything into it.

Where the complete list is

Every report on a model and system, dated and numbered beside the recalls, investigations, bulletins and owner complaints, is exhibit F of the defect dossier. The same records are free to read here; the dossier is the file you can cite.

Questions about these reports

Source: NHTSA Early Warning Reporting

Where does NHTSA publish Early Warning Reporting data?

On the Early Warning Reporting page under Vehicle Manufacturers at nhtsa.gov, through a search box that asks for the manufacturer, the report type and the quarter. WhichTrim reads the same tables every night and lays them out by model.

Does a report here mean the Toyota has a defect?

No. It means the manufacturer received a claim or notice alleging a death or injury and named this model in its quarterly report, as the rule requires. NHTSA reads these reports for patterns; a recall or an investigation is where a finding would appear.

Why is the incident date sometimes blank?

The manufacturer did not report one. The quarter the report was filed in is always shown.

Can I get every incident as a spreadsheet?

The defect dossier for a model and system includes them in its exhibits CSV, each with its date, state, the counts and the systems named.
