Subscribe to receive alerts on vehicle recalls

Vehicle recalls play a critical role in keeping you and the vehicles on our roads safe.

Every year, hundreds of recall notices are issued ranging from minor defects right up to critical issues that need immediate attention.

Our Vehicle Recalls website provides a one-stop-shop for you to search and view all recall notices in Australia for road vehicles and road vehicle components.

You can now also subscribe to receive our Vehicle Recall Alert to stay across recall notices for your vehicle type and make.

If your vehicle is part of a recall, you’ll be notified from the place you bought it and it will usually involve returning your vehicle to have the issue fixed.

It’s important that you take swift action if you see or receive a recall notice about your vehicle. Taking action can help you, or someone you know, avoid injury or even death.
