A lot of people feel confident that they’d definitely be aware of a recall on their vehicle. And in most cases, they’d be right. But recalls that go unnoticed by consumers can be dangerous, and the necessary information falling between the cracks happens more often than you might think. Here, we share some reasons you might not be aware of a recall on your vehicle and give you advice for how and when to perform a check.

Consumers are generally informed of a recall by first-class mail from the manufacturer. This creates the possibility that the mail may not reach the intended recipient for a variety of reasons:

  • — The owner has recently changed addresses
  • — Postal service error
  • — The owner discarded the mail by accident
  • — Vehicle was in the process of being bought or sold when notification took place

Those are only a few of the many reasons why people sometimes don’t find out about a recall on their vehicle. It’s important to occasionally check to make sure you’re not one of the owners who did not find out about a recall on your current vehicle. In just about all cases, you are able to receive the repairs necessitated by the recall for free, so it’s in your best interest to find out.
