How the figures are counted: each NHTSA campaign number is counted once for this exact make, model and model year as returned by the NHTSA recalls API; a campaign that covers several models is counted once on each model's page. “Units potentially affected” is the manufacturer-reported figure for the whole campaign, not for this model year alone.

Worked example: 2018 Honda Odyssey: 16 campaigns = 26V423000, 26V332000, 26V227000 and 13 more.
