HPI LAUNCHES RECALL CHECK
Working in partnership with the SMMT to protect consumers against buying a car with a manufacturing fault or defect www.hpicheck.com/recall-check Vehicle history check expert, HPI, is helping used car buyers to make even safer purchase decisions with the launch of the HPI Recall Check. Now consumers can find out if a vehicle they are looking to purchase has been officially recalled by the manufacturer. The UK’s automotive industry boasts one of the highest recall and repair success rates across the world, exceeding 90% following a recall campaign; the launch of the HPI Recall Check supports this commitment, ensuring millions of vehicles remain safe. Ian Rendle, Managing Director for cap hpi explains; “If a manufacturer spots a pattern of problems or potential problems, it will recall the cars affected to official dealers, so those faults can be fixed free of charge. In some cases, recalled vehicles are being checked in case there’s a problem, not because there definitely is one. But, through no fault of the manufacturer, there are instances when a recall notice is missed, such as when a vehicle is transferred between owners.
