What Should I Do If there is a Recall for my Vehicle?
It is important that you understand a recall doesn’t mean you should immediately panic. Various different recalls are issued each year. Some are more severe than others. Something relating to your brakes, airbags, or seat belts is a safety concern. This warrants a service appointment immediately. There are other issues that are not quite as dangerous. You shouldn’t completely disregard this alert but you can still drive you vehicle during the time before your appointment. Don’t take matters into your own hands. If Toyota has told you that a repair is needed for your vehicle, take the time to schedule an appointment. It is important that you don’t repair your vehicle on your own to save time. We receive OEM parts for the recalls that are issued by Toyota. These parts are what need to be used on your vehicle. Once you have received notification from Toyota give us a call so we can schedule your upcoming service appointment with one of our technicians.
Do I Have to Pay for Recall Repairs?
It is required that all manufacturers have to cover the expenses associated with their recalls. If a repair is needed, this will need to be paid for by the manufacturer. There may also be instances where refunds may be issued or parts replaced. Regardless of what the fix is, you won’t be responsible for paying for anything. The only thing you need to do is take your vehicle in for a repair. Don’t try to complete the repair on your own. It is important that you allow the professionals to get the job done right. You could end up causing a lot of damage to your vehicle if you are not careful. This could end up costing you if you need other repairs completed.
