Do auto manufacturers play game with Recall?
I received a safety recall from Honda saying my Honda civic needs to have its air bag inflator repaired free of charge to me. I can go to any Honda dealerships in US.
However, does this give the dealers the chance to say something like, "We can fix your air bag inflator without replacing this and that and other parts". So in the end, even if you have the Recall letter, you still end up paying to get your car fixed. Does a situation I’m describing happen with automobile safety recalls?
No. Anything that’s connected to replacing the part under recall will be replaced for no charge, that’s the whole point of the recall. It’s cheaper than having to deal with the lawsuits that could come from having the part fail in multiple cars. Also, the dealership that the recall is performed at will still make their money from the manufacturer, so they have no reason to charge you extra from any other parts. Take the car in – it’s a free repair of a manufacturer defect and you wouldn’t want it to fail in the event of a crash.
On the other hand, when you take your car in, most places will do a courtesy inspection of the entire car, and will probably try to sell you something based on what they find from that. But it will have nothing to do with the recall, and you can choose to decline any additional services, without any impact on your airbag repair.
By the way, replacing the air bag module shouldn’t require the replacement of any other parts
