Welcome Back!
Today I share with you the current recalls going on with the different car companies. These are important things you should know to keep you and your family safe.
The most important thing you should know about recalls, and no one ever tells you, is that if there is a recall on your vehicle, the dealer has to pay for it - not you. It's just some of your time to get the vehicle there to be fixed.
The one recall that seems to have gone somewhat unnoticed, is the Nissan Pathfinder. Did you know that all years - back to the first year - have major recalls including the steering box rotting out of the vehicle? One minute you are directing the car and the next moment - the car is steering off on its own! There are other problems as well. Don't let this happen to you! To check that recall - CLICK HERE.
