How this affects the score
A recall in the past five years removes the "no FDA recall in five years" Brand Trust signal, and a Class I recall removes "no Class I recall ever." Older recalls stay on the record for context but stop weighing on the score. We only subtract Brand Trust points on a verified brand-manufacturer-product match, never a name collision. Iams has no recent matches weighing on its current Brand Trust signal.

Recalls feed the Brand Trust sub-score. A recall in the past five years removes the five-year-clean signal and a Class I recall removes the never-Class-I signal. We act only on a verified brand-manufacturer-product match against the FDA record, and older recalls stop weighing over time.
The FDA Firm-Issued Recalls Data Sets, current to April 2026. We match the FDA export against the brand and its manufacturer and disposition each hit by hand before it touches a score; full-export reconciliation for Iams is still pending.
