Here is a money saving tip – recall repairs are done for free at a dealership.

You can find out if your vehicle has a past recall by going to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s website: https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls and inputting your VIN number. Or download their SaferCar app.

In the news:  Numbers released by the National Insurance Crime Bureau show there was an 11 percent increase in the number of vehicles stolen in the U.S. last year, with the two most popular targets being Ford and Chevrolet half-ton pickups.

The Honda Civic and Accord were the next most popular cars to steal, in part because late-1990s versions of these vehicles still on the road are unlikely to have anti-theft devices built in. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a37983327/2020-stolen-cars-chevrolet-ford-trucks/
