Smart Safety: Car Recalls

Why will 50 million cars with open recalls take to America's roads this summer?

Answer:

Information about recalls is decentralized, unorganized, and notoriously difficult to find. In many cases, people aren't even aware that their car is in recall. This is a mass public concern that is dangerous not only for car owners, but for anyone else on the road this summer.

But there is a way for car owners to protect themselves and give their families peace of mind this summer—and it only takes 1 minute.

WHAT TO DO:

1. Visit www.motorsafety.org
2. Enter your car's VIN
3. Click "Check recall status"
4. If your car is in recall, you will be directed to a certified dealer to fix the problem
