Where can I find Car Recalls?

Answer:
Many consumers who own used cars do not know that they

have a car that has had a recall until they take it in to be fixed and are informed about the recall by the mechanic. Knowing if your car has a recall is important to the safety of those in your car. There are several places you can go to find out if your car has a recall.

One place that has recalls categorized in an easy-to-search database is safercar.gov . You can search the database on this site based on which vehicle you drive, and you will quickly know whether or not there are any recalls on your car. Recall.gov is another website you can use to search all recalls, including those on cars. Another way to find out if there are any recalls on your car is to check with the manufacturer.
