Here is a list of the vehicles recalled and here’s how you can check to see if your vehicle is at risk. This link will provide which cars and models are being recalled. You will also read the steps needed to take if your car is on that list.

  1. Be proactive and informative
    • If your car is on the list, call the dealership to see what your next step is and when your vehicle can be repaired.
