Recalls For The Week Of March 31, 2014

Happy Monday everyone!

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is busy issuing recalls.  If it wasn't for them I doubt manufacturers would be as diligent to make vehicles as perfect as humanly possible.  Be this as it may it is regrettable that manufacturers to this day hide defects sometimes for many years.

Please review the list.  If your vehicle is affected please have it repaired as quickly as possible.
