Carvector Mcp

carvectorio/carvector-mcp

Connects AI agents to CarVector's API for querying vehicle specifications, federal recall campaigns, and OBD-II diagnostic trouble codes. Exposes four tools: search_vehicles to find matches by year/make/model, get_vehicle for full specs and images, get_recalls for NHTSA campaign data, and lookup_dtc to decode check engine light codes with severity and safety flags. Useful when you need structured automotive data instead of hallucinated horsepower numbers or outdated recall information. Runs via npx with your CarVector API key or points directly at their hosted MCP endpoint. Free tier gives you 100 requests daily, no card required.

Readme

carvector-mcp

Give your AI agent real vehicle data. An MCP server that lets Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any MCP-capable client query the CarVector API natively — vehicle specs, representative images, federal recalls, owner complaints, service bulletins, defect investigations, and OBD-II diagnostic trouble codes.

Models hallucinate car data. They invent horsepower numbers, miss recalls filed last week, and guess at what a trouble code means. carvector-mcp gives your agent structured, sourced answers it can cite instead of a confident guess.
