Does Your Car Have A Recall Item?

April 4, 2018

No matter how well they're made, vehicles 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 vehicle manufacturer to issue recall notices to Gahanna residents and to fix the affected vehicles free of charge. The they try to contact all Gahanna residents who own that type of car so they can have it taken care of at their Gahanna service center.

To find out if your car has any recall issues, give us a call:

Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Center Gahanna
115 N. Hamilton Road
Gahanna, Ohio 43230
614-337-8080

These recalls always affect safety, so Gahanna residents 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 Gahanna residents and don't happen all that often. But sometimes cars have less serious problems that Gahanna residents still might want to know about. For these less serious cases, the vehicle manufacturer issues what is known as a Technical Service Bulletin – or TSB. These bulletins tell Gahanna service centers (including Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Center Gahanna) how to repair a problem that occurs frequently or is especially difficult.

Your Gahanna service center receives updated information through subscription plans, which are sometimes available in consumer versions too.

Whatever your source, pay attention to Gahanna vehicle recalls to keep you and your passengers safe.
