## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-09-29.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 4 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 75/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 428 tokens (~107/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability check failed: schema churn in the 30 days we've observed: 5 tool removals, 0 breaking changes, 0 auth/transport breaks, 4 additions.
- **Tool Coverage**: 89/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 67% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (4)

### `search_recalls` (~133 tokens)

Search vehicle safety recall notices from seven national and European registers (NHTSA, Transport Canada, DVSA, EU Safety Gate, RDW, MLIT, Israel) by recall number, make and model, or a plain-language description of the problem in any language (e.g. "brakes fail on 2019 Honda CR-V"). Returns titles and CarsMultiverse URLs to cite.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer)
- `query` (string, required): A recall number such as 25V455, a make and model such as "ford f-150", or a description of the fault in plain words.

### `get_recall_notice` (~83 tokens)

Get one recall notice kept by CarsMultiverse: title, summary, register, dates, an excerpt of the notice and a citation. Pass a recall number or a CarsMultiverse URL or path.

Input parameters:

- `reference` (string, required): Recall number (e.g. 25V455) or URL/path (e.g. /recall/25v455/).

### `check_vehicle` (~156 tokens)

Check one vehicle for safety recalls: by VIN (decoded worldwide with NHTSA vPIC), or by make, model and model year. Returns every American recall campaign that may cover it (with do-not-drive and park-outside warnings, and whether the wording was rewritten after publication) plus matching notices from the Canadian, British, EU, Dutch, Japanese and Israeli registers.

Input parameters:

- `country` (string): Country of the number plate.
- `make` (string)
- `model` (string)
- `plate` (string): Number plate (Netherlands or Israel only): returns the recalls still open on that exact vehicle.

- `year` (string): Four-digit model year.

### `list_registers` (~26 tokens)

List the seven recall registers CarsMultiverse keeps, with their authorities and index pages.

CarsMultiverse — the recall record scores 66 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the CarsMultiverse — the recall record MCP server expose?

CarsMultiverse — the recall record exposes 4 tools: search_recalls, get_recall_notice, check_vehicle, list_registers. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 398 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the CarsMultiverse — the recall record MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to CarsMultiverse — the recall record without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the CarsMultiverse — the recall record MCP server still maintained?
