1990 CHEVROLET CELEBRITY — Complaint #474858
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about TIRES:TUBE filed May 11, 2004
NHTSA complaint #474858 (ODI reference 10072388) concerns a 1990 CHEVROLET CELEBRITY and was filed on May 11, 2004. The owner reports the failure occurred on May 10, 2004. The report was geocoded to Virginia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as tires:tube, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. No VIN was supplied by the filer, so this complaint contributes to model-year trend data but cannot be tied to a specific vehicle.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same CHEVROLET CELEBRITY cohort independently describe similar tires:tube failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 1990 CHEVROLET CELEBRITY shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
