What Should I Do If There is a Recall for my Vehicle?
Recall notices might come through the mail or if they're especially serious, they might come to you through a phone call from your automaker. As an authorized Ford dealer, we always go to every effort to keep our customers up to speed on the latest recalls of their Ford models. Why? Well, it's because recalls are a serious matter. Sometimes an entire vehicle will be recalled for multiple issues. Other times the recall is as simple as a component that needs to be altered. They can be simple or very complex but recalls always have to do with an issue that compromises safety.
While there's nothing to be alarmed about when you get notice of a recall, it's vital that you contact our authorized dealership to set up a repair on the part that your automaker feels needs to be repaired. Recalls always involve safety. Either the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration or Ford itself believes that your vehicle or a component of your vehicle poses a safety threat to you. Don't panic! But do call our authorized dealership to get down here and have the matter taken care of. If you can't afford to be without your vehicle for even a few hours, ask about a loaner that we can give you during the recall repair.
Do I Have to Pay for Recall Repairs?
A lot of people worry that they will have to pay out of pocket for their own recall repairs. The first thing our experienced staff lets them know is that in general a recall is free to have taken care of. You won't pay a dime out of pocket to have a recall repair. Granted, if there are other things wrong with your vehicle you might pay out of pocket for additional repairs, but a recall is free to have repaired. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.
