In short

How do I automatically check my fleet vehicles for open manufacturer recalls?

WebRun collects every active vehicle's VIN from Fleetio each Monday, checks each against the NHTSA recall database, and logs any open recalls to Google Sheets with campaign number, description, and remedy availability. Vehicles with an available remedy are marked action-required so your fleet team can schedule the repair and close the safety gap.

  • Open recalls are caught weekly before they become a liability or safety incident
  • Vehicles with an available remedy are prioritized for dealer scheduling
  • A running Google Sheet record serves as an audit trail for recall compliance

Questions, answered

Will it schedule the recall repair with a dealer automatically?

No. Scheduling a dealer appointment for a recall repair requires confirming parts availability and booking a service slot, so WebRun logs the recall and leaves the scheduling to your fleet team.

Where does the recall data come from?

WebRun queries the NHTSA vehicle recall database using each vehicle's VIN, which is the authoritative public source for US manufacturer safety recalls.

What if a vehicle's recall was already completed at a dealer?

You can mark it resolved in the Google Sheet. WebRun updates existing entries and only logs new open recalls each week, so resolved rows are preserved as an audit trail without being re-flagged.
