What this means

Every mainstream EV on the road carries recalls on its NHTSA file — a recall is the system working: a known issue gets documented and, almost always, fixed for free.

What actually matters is whether the remedies have shipped and whether NHTSA still has open questions. For the Dodge Charger Daytona, the single recall on file has a remedy available, and no NHTSA investigations are currently open.
