NHTSA publishes 1,000+ recalls a year. The average owner finds out weeks later — by mail. Vehicle Safety Monitor fixes that. Add any vehicle and get a Telegram message the moment NHTSA (US), Transport Canada, or DVSA (UK) issues a recall — with the defect, the remedy, and a link to the official page. No new app. No email noise. Just a bot in your existing Telegram inbox, checking three government databases every 6 hours. Free for up to 3 vehicles.
Hey Product Hunt!
I built Vehicle Safety Monitor after noticing how broken the current recall notification system is — the government mails you a letter weeks after a recall is published, if the address on file is even current.
The fix felt obvious: poll the official APIs automatically and push the alert where people actually check messages — Telegram.
The bot covers three databases:
🇺🇸 NHTSA (US) — all recalls since 1999
🇨🇦 Transport Canada
🇬🇧 DVSA (UK)
Each recall alert includes the defect description, remedy, and a direct link to the official recall page. Deduplication is built in — you'll never get the same recall twice.
Free plan covers 3 vehicles, no credit card. Paid plans use Telegram Stars (Telegram's native currency) — no external checkout.

I'd love to hear from anyone running a fleet, working in insurance, or just someone who recently found out about a recall the hard way. What would make this more useful for you?
