How it Works - FAQ

What does Recalls Near Me™ actually do?

Recalls Near Me™ scans used car lots in every U.S. market, identifies vehicles with open manufacturer recalls, and notifies the local certified OEM dealership when a recall is ready to be serviced.

What counts as “near me”?

Recalls Near Me™ scans used car lots within a 25-mile radius of each certified OEM dealership. Open recalls are sorted and prioritized based on proximity to the dealership.

What vehicles are included in the scan?

Recalls Near Me™ scans all used vehicles listed on dealership and used car lot inventory. Only vehicles with open recalls, as confirmed by NHTSA data, are displayed.

How accurate is the “open recall” flag?

Recall status is determined using NHTSA recall and VIN lookup data to accurately identify open manufacturer recalls.

Does it cover all recall types?

Yes. Any open recall listed in the NHTSA database is flagged, and full recall details are displayed within the platform.

How often are scans updated?

Inventory is rechecked daily or weekly (plan dependent), and NHTSA recall data is monitored continuously to capture newly issued or updated recalls.

Can we filter to only the makes or brands we’re authorized to repair?

Yes. During setup, your dealership registers its OEM brand, and Recalls Near Me™ automatically filters recall opportunities to match your authorization.

How do you identify vehicles in our “opportunity zone”?

Any vehicle with an open recall, within a 25-mile radius, and matching your authorized brand is flagged as an opportunity. 

How do we avoid duplicates and wasted effort?

Some dealer websites share inventory across locations. Recalls Near Me™ analyzes vehicle detail pages to identify the actual physical location of each vehicle and displays it with a confidence score to reduce duplication.

How do we contact the other dealership? Do you provide contacts?

Recalls Near Me™ provides business contact information for used car lots, including phone numbers, addresses, and websites. You can also manage contacts and initiate calls or emails directly from the platform.

Who actually calls, texts, or emails?

Dealer-to-dealer outreach is handled by your internal or outsourced BDC team, using the contact information provided by Recalls Near Me™.

What happens if a recall can’t be completed due to parts issues or stop-sale?

If a recall cannot be repaired, you can mark it as closed so it is removed from your active view and does not continue to surface.

Can we target vehicles that have never been to our store?

Yes. Recalls Near Me™ identifies all vehicles within your market that match your OEM brand and have open recalls, regardless of prior relationship with your dealership.

What KPIs prove ROI?

Once a recall is completed, you can log the repair order number, labor hours, and dollar value. Recalls Near Me™ calculates weekly and monthly service hours and revenue to measure ROI.

Is this legal and allowed?

Yes. These are used vehicles without a registered retail owner. The process is legal and supports public safety by helping ensure recalls are addressed before vehicles are sold.

Does this involve customer personal data?

No. Recalls Near Me™ does not store or process consumer personal data. All data is business-level information sourced from used car lot websites and public recall databases.
