PSA: MASSIVE AIRBAG RECALL! Check if your on the list! IMPORTANT! Multiple manufacturers!

Vehicle owners can call our Safety Hotline:

1-888-327-4236

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration urges owners of certain Toyota, Honda, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Chrysler, Ford and General Motors vehicles to act immediately on recall notices to replace defective Takata airbags. Over seven million vehicles are involved in these recalls, which have occurred as far back as 18 months ago and as recently as Monday. The message comes with urgency, especially for owners of vehicles affected by regional recalls in the following areas: Florida, Puerto Rico, limited areas near the Gulf of Mexico in Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and Louisiana, as well as Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, Virgin Islands and Hawaii.

"Responding to these recalls, whether old or new, is essential to personal safety and it will help aid our ongoing investigation into Takata airbags and what appears to be a problem related to extended exposure to consistently high humidity and temperatures. However, we’re leaving no stone unturned in our aggressive pursuit to track down the full geographic scope of this issue," said NHTSA Deputy Administrator David Friedman.

Consumers that are uncertain whether their vehicle is impacted by the Takata recalls, or any other recall, can contact their manufacturer’s website to search, by their vehicle identification number (VIN) to confirm whether their individual vehicle has an open recall that needs to be addressed. Owners that have been contacted by their manufacturer should contact their dealer’s service department and make arrangements for the repair. In addition, consumers can sign up for NHTSA recall alerts, which go out before recall letters are mailed by the manufacturers to the affected owners.

7.8 Million Affected U.S. Vehicles, by Manufacturer, Impacted by CY 2013 and 2014 Recalls Involving Takata Airbags

Note: The list below corrects the list that accompanied our October 20 advisory, which incorrectly included certain vehicles. The numbers cited for potentially affected vehicles below are subject to change and adjustment because there may be cases of vehicles being counted more than once. Owners should check their VIN periodically as manufacturers continue to add VINs to the database. Once owner recall notices are available, owners can retrieve a copy from SaferCar.gov, or will receive one by U.S. mail and are advised to carefully follow the enclosed instructions.

Consumer Advisory: Vehicle Owners with Defective Airbags Urged to Take Immediate Action | National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)

The Driver- Good of you to post that so people here have an easy way to look their vehicles up.

Heard about this. Mine is not on the list.

Thank goodness none of my family`s cars are on the list. What a total cluster f...!

I`m in Florida and and have a GM vehicle. Haven`t received a recall letter from GM yet though, so am I good or should I be worried?

As someone who works at a dealer that has been dealing with this recall for a while now, you would not believe how big a cluster f this is. That and about 75% of the people that come for the recall don`t return to get the parts installed.

doesn`t look like anything after 2008 yet

Check your vehicle here....

Yup, Airbags are just a little important now a days ;)

Out of 4 cars in the house, none are on the list thank god. Volvo, Audi & Mercedes.... pheeeew.

Tip for possibly easier data entry- Cluster #^@& = Charlie Foxtrot ;)

too many cars were recalled. I was lucky that my car wasn`t in the list.

My 2010 Ford Mustang is now on the list. I was notified by Ford July 22, 2015. Ford will notify me when parts are available but I`ve heard that could take months if not several years.
