Does Your Car Have A Recall Item?
October 14, 2015
No matter how well they’re made, cars are bound to have problems with their design or manufacturing. Think of all the moving parts. When the government thinks a problem is really serious, they require the car maker to issue recall notices to New Orleans residents and to fix the affected cars free of charge. The car maker then tries to contact all New Orleans motorists who own that type of car so they can have it taken care of at their New Orleans service center.
To find out if your car has any recall issues, give us a call:
Boudreaux's
9400 Chef Mentor Hwy New Orleans, Louisiana 70127
985-788-3192
These recalls always affect safety, so New Orleans motorists would be wise to take them seriously. It’s really easy to find out if a vehicle is being recalled. For links to government sites, look in the AutoNetTV website.
Other website include: carfax.com; autobytel.com; and dmv.org. All of these sites have free recall searches.
Recalls are pretty serious for New Orleans drivers and don’t happen all that often. But sometimes cars have less serious problems that New Orleans car owners still might want to know about. For these less serious cases, auto manufacturers issue what is known as a Technical Service Bulletin – or TSB. These bulletins tell New Orleans service centers (including Boudreaux's) how to repair a problem that occurs frequently or is especially difficult.
Your New Orleans tech receives updated information through subscription plans, which are sometimes available in consumer versions too. New Orleans motorists can buy access to these for an annual fee.
Whatever your source, pay attention to New Orleans vehicle recalls to keep you and your passengers safe.
