According to the “U.S. DOT National Highway Traffic Safety Administration” (NHTSA) your vehicle may be involved in a safety recall.  The dealer must make the repairs at no cost to you.  Please be aware, if the defect(s) is not repaired it could lead to injury or even death.  Here is what we have learned from the NHTSA notice dated 1/11/16:  “When a manufacturer or the 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.  The following recall may apply to one or more of your vehicles if your vehicle is listed below.  Click on the NHTSA Campaign ID number below to read more about safety issues and the reason for the recall.

To find out if your vehicle is included in the recall, use the  VIN Look-up Tool.
