Product recall announcements published by China’s State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR): about 1,400 announcements since 2018, searchable by title, category and date, with the full notice text for each. Keyless, live per request.

Tools

• china_search_recalls(query?, category?, from?, to?, limit?, offset?) — recall announcements newest first. Returns id, title, date and an inferred category (vehicle, consumer_product, monthly_digest). Answers “has this company or product been recalled in China, and when”.
• china_get_recall(id) — one announcement in full: recalling company, units affected, production window, defect and remedy text (Chinese), issuing unit, publication time, and attachments such as the recall-plan PDF.

Auth

Keyless.

Data sources

• State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR), China, product recall announcements (the recall column of the SAMR government-affairs pages). Public, served without credentials. The pack proxies per call and stores nothing.

Things the next person would otherwise rediscover

• Scope is mostly vehicles. Of the listed announcements the large majority are cars and motorcycles. Consumer goods (e.g. a power bank, a vacuum flask) are a small minority. The Defective Product Administration Center site was not reachable from our vantage, so no separate consumer-goods list is covered.
• Monthly “domestic and foreign recall information” digests are listed but published as images; china_get_recall reports image_only for them rather than inventing text.
• Titles are Chinese. query matches title text; a short alias table maps common English brand and product words (tesla, xiaomi, power bank, …) to their Chinese forms and the terms actually used are echoed in query_terms_used.
• Category is inferred from the title, not published by SAMR. Treat consumer_product as “not recognised as a vehicle”.
• Dates are announcement dates, not recall start dates; many announcements are published in batches on one day. The production window and units affected are parsed from the text and are null when the notice words them differently.
• A non-empty upstream list is asserted on every call; an empty first page raises an error instead of reporting “no recalls”.
