Recall check by VIN number
Guys you can check your vehicle recalls using this website.
http://www.safercar.gov
Owners may not always know their recalled vehicle still needs to be repaired. NHTSA's new search tool lets you enter a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to quickly learn if a specific vehicle has not been repaired as part of a safety recall in the last 15 years.

Before today, if you wanted to see whether your car had been recalled, you could either (a) check NHTSA's recall site (though it wouldn't provide precise info about individual cars), (b) check your automaker's customer care website (assuming it maintained up-to-date recall info), or (c) read sites like this one and wait for the recall notice to arrive in the mail. As much as we love having you stop by each day, we know that none of those options were ideal.
What this VIN search tool covers:
Safety recalls that are incomplete on a vehicle
Safety recalls conducted over the past 15 calendar years
Safety recalls conducted by major light auto automakers, including motorcycle manufacturers.
What this VIN search tool does NOT cover:
Completed safety recall information
Manufacturer customer service or other non-safety recall campaigns
International vehicles
Very recently announced safety recalls for which not all VINs have been identified
Safety recalls that are more than 15 years old (except where a manufacturer offers more coverage)
Safety recalls conducted by small vehicle manufacturers, including some ultra-luxury brands and specialty applications.
