Taking Action

One of the most hectic times is when you receive a recall notice for your car and don’t know what to do about it. We’ve all been there and it’s the last thing you want to be dealing with especially when you just bought your car and have so much going on.

From faulty ignition switches to exploding airbags, deadly automotive defects have captured a lot of attention in the past couple of years and it really is something you don’t want to set aside. Recalls are always safety related and deserve your attention no matter how insignificant they may seem. For example, who would have thought that an ignition switch that costs less than a dollar to make could lead to 57 deaths and more than 100 injuries. The risk is just not worth it.

So how can you find out if your car has a recall? It’s simple. All you have to do is go to a website like safercar.gov where you can put in your vehicle identification number and the site will show you a list of every single recall to date. From there you could print that information and take it to your local dealer where they will simply fix the problem for you…it’s that simple!
