Used Car Corner: Checking for TSBs and Recalls

If you've recently bought a used car, or even if you've owned yours for some time, occasionally checking for TSBs (Technical Service Bulletins) and Recalls is well-advised.  TSBs are typically non-safety-related defects whereas Recalls are safety related.  You can get the low-down on both with this article. 

Either way, you'll want to know whether or not your car has any potentially upleasant surprises in store for you. To get the skinny on your car, go here and you'll see links for "Safety Recalls" and "Service Bulletins" on the left hand side.
