We publish the source behind every number. Recall counts, complaint totals and fuel-economy figures come from NHTSA and the EPA and are dated on the page, so you can re-run any of them yourself. Where an article recommends a check, it links to the free federal tool that performs it. Where we think a paid service is worth it, we say why — and where it is not, we say that too.
