Transport Canada Makes Vehicle Safety Recall Information More Accessible to Canadians
OTTAWA, ONTARIO February 10, 2025 – Transport Canada is making it easier for Canadians to access vehicle safety recall information through a new online tool. The tool, which is available on the Transport Canada website, provides a searchable database of all active safety recalls for vehicles sold in Canada.
The database includes information on the make, model, and year of the vehicle, as well as the potential safety hazard and the steps that need to be taken to fix the problem. Canadians can search the database by vehicle identification number (VIN), make, or model, or they can browse all active recalls.
“This new tool is part of our ongoing commitment to improving vehicle safety in Canada,” said Transport Minister Omar Alghabra. “By making recall information more accessible, we are making it easier for Canadians to stay informed about potential safety hazards and to get their vehicles fixed quickly and easily.”
In addition to the online tool, Transport Canada also provides recall information through a variety of other channels, including:
- The Recall Info Line: Canadians can call 1-800-333-0510 to get information about active recalls for their vehicle.
- Email notifications: Canadians can sign up to receive email notifications about active recalls for their vehicle.
- Social media: Transport Canada provides recall information through its social media channels, including Twitter and Facebook.
Canadians are encouraged to check for active recalls on their vehicle regularly. They can do this by visiting the Transport Canada website, calling the Recall Info Line, or signing up for email notifications.
