NHTSA Vehicle Recalls for January 7, 2019

Good morning.  Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had safe motoring holidays.

For the past couple of weeks the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has not released their weekly list of recalls.  This week is different.  Their list is shorter than usual but none the less important.

This week safety issues include fuel leaks, steering problems. air bag troubles, reflector issues, welds that might break, brake system problems and more. 

Please review the list.  If your vehicle is affected by a recall please have it repaired as quickly as possible.  Recall repairs performed at your dealer are free of charge. 

Have a safe motoring week!
