What We Look For
- Open safety recalls, which are usually repaired free of charge at authorized dealers
- Buybacks or replacement vehicles, offered only in some serious cases where a repair is not possible or keeps failing
- Discounts on a replacement or newer vehicle, offered by some manufacturers in some programs
- Reimbursement of repairs you already paid for, where a program allows it
- Settlement payments from manufacturer programs or class actions, where one exists
- Loan or rental cars during some recall repairs, where offered
Most recalls are fixed with a free repair. Replacements, discounts and payments are less common and depend on the manufacturer, your country, the vehicle and the specific campaign. We cannot promise any outcome.

This is a free community service
No payment is required, now or later.
If you receive compensation after following our guidance, we ask you to consider a voluntary payment of US$50. It is your choice and it is never required. We will not invoice you or chase you, and we only know you were successful if you tell us.
These voluntary payments are what keep the free check running for everyone. If you are successful, please don't let us down.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to pay anything?
No. The check is free and there is nothing to pay to submit the form. If, and only if, you later receive compensation, we ask you to consider a voluntary US$50 payment to help keep the service free for others. It is entirely your choice. We will never invoice or chase you.
Is this a real-time check?
No. After you submit, our analysts review the information and reply by email. Results are not shown on this page.
What compensation might be available?
Most open recalls are fixed with a free repair. In some serious cases a manufacturer may offer a buyback or replacement. Some programs offer discounts on a newer vehicle, reimbursement of past repairs, or settlement payments. What is available depends on the specific recall, your country and your circumstances, and we cannot guarantee any outcome.
Do I need my VIN?
Yes. The 17-character VIN is the most accurate way to identify your exact vehicle and any recalls tied to it. It is usually on the driver's side of the dashboard, visible through the windscreen, or on the door frame. It also appears on your registration documents.
