Exactly as the recall is printed on your web page. You have my address wrong you added a 0 is why we never received recall letter until car already burnt up when fire department put it out they informed us of recall. So we looked it up on web site. Thank god my 17 yr old wasn't injured. She is still traumatized it was scary to her and I would of sued you if she was hurt but she wasn't so replace the money or the car thank you she earned it herself.
