A new analysis by Brown & Crouppen, a law firm that focuses on road accident cases, has found that high recall counts and fatal crashes do not deter Americans from buying cars that have historically been recalled. The firm compared U.S. data on vehicles from 2020 to 2025 to determine which vehicles have the worst track records for recalls and deadly incidents yet continue to sell in large numbers. The Ford Ranger ranked the highest with 42 recalls and nearly 2,000 vehicles involved in fatal crashes, while the Ford F-150 came in second with 94 recalls and about 8,200 vehicles affected in deadly crashes. The Nissan Altima topped the top three spots with over 716,000 units sold since 2020. The findings suggest that recalls often do little damage a vehicle's reputation due to many drivers not aware of them.
