One particularly important part of our automotive service is ensuring all Speck Hyundai of Tri-Cities customers are made aware of any Hyundai recalls. So what is a recall and what does it involve?
A recall is when you receive a notice by mail, email, or phone that your new or certified pre-owned Hyundai needs to come to our automotive service center for required maintenance or part replacement. There are two potential reasons a recall can occur.
The first is when Hyundai itself – as the manufacturer – decides to issue a recall notice that indicates a certain Hyundai model has a part that needs replacing or a specific maintenance process that must be initiated. The other is when the National Highway Safety Administration (NHTSA) determines that a Hyundai recall is needed due to recent issues with the vehicle or with certain components within the vehicle not meeting the NHTSA safety requirements.
Who Covers the Cost of a Recall?To ensure our customers are always informed, Speck Hyundai of Tri-Cities provides all customers with our Hyundai recall VIN search tool. Your VIN stands for Vehicle Information Number. Your VIN is a 17-character identifier that defines important information like the make, model, and year of your Hyundai as well as the country where it was made. You can find your VIN on your Hyundai’s dashboard just near the bottom of your windshield, on your insurance card, on your vehicle’s registration, or on the inside of the front door.
Our VIN search tool goes back to 08/20/1986 – allowing all Hyundai owners and Speck Hyundai of Tri-Cities customers the opportunity to check their Hyundais no matter their age. Simply schedule an appointment after validating the Hyundai recall information and our team will be happy to help.
