Did you know that nearly 8,000 consumer products are recalled each year? Even worse, tens of millions of vehicles are recalled every year in the U.S. according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)—more than 31 million from 786 vehicle recalls in 2020 alone.
Under the Consumer Product Safety Act and United States Code for Motor Vehicle Safety, you're entitled to a refund, repair, or replacement for recalled items. And DoNotPay wants to help make sure that you get access to these reimbursements.
