Distinct recall campaign co-occurrences for leading makes and model years.
Vehicle make

Campaign co-occurrence, not an exact vehicle pairing. NHTSA’s campaign file lists makes and model years separately, so a multi-make campaign can appear in several cells. Heat-map cells are not additive.

Safety systems

Leading recall components

Campaign memberships by top-level NHTSA component. A campaign can list multiple components, so these bars are not additive.
