What is a recall?

An automotive recall works very much like any other recall. A product, or in this case, a vehicle, is identified as potentially having the ability to create a safety hazard to the general public or traffic at large. At that point, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) may opt to issue an automotive recall for your particular vehicle.

A recall can really relate to any part of the vehicle from equipment, the vehicle itself to seats and tires. Anything that can create a safety hazard if not functioning properly. If your vehicle is in fact affected by an automotive recall, the NHTSA requires your auto manufacturer to get in touch with you so that you can get the proper repairs and service done right away.
