You just need to make sure that your vehicle is serviced in the near future. A recall can pertain to anything.

A recall will typically affect many vehicles. You can trust that the work we do is effective and safe.
Make sure that you follow the instructions from the manufacturer. The letter that you receive will usually tell you where you can take your vehicle for service, and it will tell you when you should do so. Don’t take matters into your own hands. Don’t try to make the repair yourself. Also, don’t assume that you can wait a number of months for the service to be completed. This could put you into some dangerous situations if the suspected problem presents itself while you are on the road.
