About Open
Recalls on Used
Vehicles
Koons is pleased to provide used vehicle
recall status information with a link to the U.S. government's official
website (www.safercar.gov). Recall
status information is also available on the Carfax Vehicle History
Report link on the vehicle listing and vehicle details
pages. Â
Please understand,
however, that the information on safecar.gov or the Carfax Vehicle
History Report may not be fully up to date. Recently announced
recalls may not yet appeared on the website. Also, there is a
lag time between when a recall repair is made and when the repair is
reported to these websites. As a result, a recall that has
been repaired may still appear as open on safercar.gov or Carfax for a
period of time.
Most open recalls are repaired prior
to delivery, but there may be some that are not. Before purchasing a
used vehicle, make sure you ask the dealer for the most recent status
available regarding any open recalls. Manufacturer-authorized
dealerships typically repair recalls at no cost to
you.
