Q: Will a dealer do recall service on my accord at 121000 miles without the maintenance history of the car?
I recently bought a 97 honda accord with 120,XXX miles on it. The dealer got the car from an auction and has none of the services or maintenance history so I don’t know what recall service has been done. Do dealers update a national database by VIN detailing what recall service has already been performed on a car? I’d like to have a record of this and also get any recall service that has yet to be performed.
Thanks

A: If it is a “recall” you need done, then the dealer *should* perform the service regardless of any other history. However there are limitations on recalls and those depend on whether it was a voluntary manufacturer recall, or a NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). The NHTSA on requires manufactures to service their recalls for a period of 10 years.

Now if its a “TSB” (Technical Service Bulletin) then the dealer will not perform the service for free if the vehicle is out of warranty, however they will often times perform the service at a discounted rate. Again, it depends on the dealer.

All work done at a dealership, maintenance, TSB, recall, or otherwise should be recorded an available to any dealership in the manufacturer’s line. I cannot speak about Honda, but I do know that Ford will print and give you this information for free.
