What to do

  1. Check whether your vehicle is affected by entering its VIN (vehicle identification number) on the manufacturer's or the agency's recall lookup.
  2. Contact a dealer to book the repair. Recall repairs are normally free of charge.
  3. If the notice says not to drive or to park outside, follow that until the repair is done.
