REPORTING SAFETY

DEFECTS IN THE 50

UNITED STATES AND

WASHINGTON, D.C.

• If you believe that your vehicle has a

defect that could cause a collision or
cause injury or death, you should
immediately inform the National
Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) in addition
to notifying the manufacturer.

• If NHTSA receives similar

complaints, it may open an
investigation, and if it finds that a
safety defect exists in a group of
vehicles, it may order a recall and
remedy campaign. However, NHTSA
cannot become involved in individual
problems between you, your
authorized dealer, and the
manufacturer.

• To contact NHTSA, you may either

call the Auto Safety Hotline toll free
at 1–888–327–4236 (TTY:
1–800–424– 9153), or go to
http://www.safercar.gov; or write to:
Administrator, NHTSA, 1200 New
Jersey Avenue, SE., West Building,
Washington, D.C. 20590. You can
also obtain other information about
motor vehicle safety from
