Recall check FAQ
Is the recall check free?
Yes. Checking a VIN for open safety recalls is free and uses the official NHTSA recalls database. Recall repairs are typically performed free of charge at a franchised dealer.
Does “no recalls found” mean the car is safe?
It means no open safety-recall campaigns match the vehicle’s year, make and model in NHTSA’s data. It does not cover accident history, title brands or mechanical condition — a full vehicle-history report and an inspection cover those.
How current is the recall data?
Recalls come directly from NHTSA and are refreshed regularly. New campaigns can be added at any time, so it’s worth re-checking before you buy.
