Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. C10120 is the number Mitsubishi Fuso assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 21V585000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Is C10120 the same recall as 21V585000?

Yes. C10120 is Mitsubishi Fuso’s own number for it; 21V585000 is NHTSA’s. One recall, two references.

Which vehicles does C10120 cover?

2020–2021 Mitsubishi Fuso FEC9T, 952 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the C10120 repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
