NHTSA complaints, recalls and investigations per vehicle, plus daily dealer listing-change events.
Overview
AI-generated overview
Lets an assistant look up NHTSA complaints, recalls and investigations for a vehicle and daily dealer listing-change events.
- What it does
- This remote MCP server exposes vehicle data from The Used Car Index. According to the registry description, it covers NHTSA complaints, recalls and investigations per vehicle, plus daily dealer listing-change events. Tool details are not published in the manifest, so the exact tool names and parameters are not documented here.
- When to use it
- Worth adding when an assistant needs vehicle history or safety context, such as checking recalls and complaints for a specific car, or tracking how dealer listings change day to day. Less useful if you do not work with vehicle data.
- Requirements
- A remote streamable HTTP endpoint at api.theusedcarindex.com; nothing to install locally. Tool discovery works without credentials, but tool calls require an API key sent in the Authorization header as a Bearer token.
Before you install
An API key is required for tool calls and is passed as a Bearer token in the Authorization header; treat it as a secret. The server is third-party hosted, so queries and any vehicle or listing details you send go to that provider. No pricing, write, or deletion behavior is described in the available information.
Installation

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
