Auto recalls are issued to correct safety defects in an automobile. A recall is necessary when a motor vehicle or part of the vehicle doesn’t comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety standards or when there is a safety-related defect in the vehicle or its equipment.
Safety-Related Recalls
A safety-related defect refers to motor vehicle problems that pose a risk to motor vehicle safety or those existing in vehicles of the same group, design, or manufacturer. Examples of safety-related recalls include:
- Faulty Accelerator Controls
- Easily Broken Steering Components

- Improperly Functioning Seats & Seatbelts

Will I Be Notified of a Recall Order?
A lot of recalls are made voluntarily by manufacturers of the vehicle or equipment, while others might be influenced by owner complaints or internal investigations. Manufacturers are required to notify all registered owners and purchasers of the recall issue and must also give an evaluation of its risk to the vehicle/driver’s safety.
Auto Recall Remedies
Manufacturers have 3 options for correcting an auto recall:
