When the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration determines that a vehicle or component contains a safety defect or fails to meet a federal motor vehicle safety standard, the manufacturer is legally required to notify owners and fix the problem at no charge.

This site states they can also be issued if the vehicle doesn’t meet a certain federal safety standard. There have also been recalls for vehicles that have been fixed OTA with a software update so a physical defect is not a requirement for a recall.
