Recall Recap For The Week Of December 16, 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued its recall recap.  They have been very busy.  It's nice to see a government agency actually do work that does indeed succeed in keeping us safe.    

It was the night before Christmas when all the NHTSA not creature was stirring not even a castle nut could get by them nor could an electrical short.  Oh well, I'm not a poet but you get the idea.

There are a slew of recalls from loose nuts behind the steering wheel to faulty software.

Please review the recall below.  If your vehicle even has a chance of being affected by any of them, please have it repair as soon as possible.

Click on the NHTSA ID number to learn more about any of the listed recalls.

Have a Merry and Safe Christmas and a Happy and Safe New Year from Dr. Gizmo's Auto Blabber.
