How to Check for Car Recalls by VIN

Vehicle recalls are more common than most drivers realize. Thankfully, it’s easy to check if your car has one—just use your VIN.

Steps to Check for Recalls

1. Locate your 17-character VIN (driver’s side windshield, door jamb, or registration).
2. Enter it into our VIN Recall Check Tool.
3. Review any active recalls listed for your make, model, and year.

Why Recalls Matter

• Safety risks can range from faulty airbags to fire hazards
• Unrepaired recalls can reduce resale value
• Fixes are almost always free through the manufacturer
