NHTSA RECALL RECAP September 21, 2015
 |
Your vehicle may be involved in a safety recall and may create a safety risk for you or your passengers. Safety defects must be repaired by a certified dealer at no cost to you. However, if left unrepaired, a potential safety defect in your vehicle could lead to injury or even death. Read this entire email to find out more and learn what you should do next.
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 888-327-4236 or
contact your vehicle manufacturer or dealership.
