17-character Vehicle Identification Numbers, one per line. Lower case, spaces and dashes are fine. Add a model year after a VIN ("1HGCM82633A004352 2003") when you know it; it helps with VINs whose year code is ambiguous. Duplicates are decoded once. There is no limit on how many VINs one run decodes.

Recalls includeRecalls

Yes

Every NHTSA safety recall campaign for the vehicle's model year, make and model: campaign number, date, component, summary, consequence and remedy.

Owner complaints includeComplaints

Yes

NHTSA owner complaint totals for the model: count, crashes, fires, injuries, deaths, the most named components and the first and last filing date.

NCAP crash ratings includeSafetyRatings

Yes

NHTSA 5-Star Safety Ratings (overall, frontal, side, side pole, rollover and rollover risk) for the closest matching body and drive variant.

EPA fuel economy includeFuelEconomy

Yes

EPA city, highway and combined MPG, annual fuel cost, CO2 per mile, EPA scores and, for electric cars, range and kWh per 100 miles, matched on engine, transmission and drive.

All raw decode fields includeRawFields

No

Also add every non-empty field of the NHTSA vPIC decode (up to about 140) under nhtsa_raw.
