What is a recall?
When a manufacturer or the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) determines that a car or item of
motor vehicle equipment creates an unreasonable risk to safety or fails to
meet minimum safety standards, the manufacturer is required to fix that car
or equipment at no cost to the consumer. That can be done by repairing it,
replacing it, offering a refund (for equipment) or, in rare cases,
repurchasing the car.
What should I do if my vehicle is included in
this recall?
If your vehicle is included in this recall, it is very
important that you get it fixed as soon as possible given the potential
danger to you and your passengers if it is not addressed. You should
receive a separate letter in the mail from the vehicle manufacturer,
notifying you of the recall and explaining when the remedy will be
available, whom to contact to repair your vehicle or equipment, and to
remind you that the repair will be done at no charge to you. If you believe
your vehicle is included in the recall, but you do not receive a letter in
the mail from the vehicle manufacturer, please call NHTSA's Vehicle Safety
Hotline at 1-888-327-4236, or contact your vehicle manufacturer or
dealership.
Thank you for your attention to this important safety matter and for your commitment to helping save lives on America's roadways.
