How do I Check If Recall Work Was Completed on a Pontiac
An automotive recall occurs when a manufacturer discovers a defect in one of their cars. The manufacturer usually mails a recall notice to the owners of the vehicle to alert them, and the owner can then take the car to a dealership for free repair. However, if you have moved recently or purchased a used car, you may not have received those notices.
