Assessment of the Circular on Vehicle Recalls
July 16, 2025
The Tripartite Investigative Committee reviewed the Circular of the Department of Road Transport regarding vehicle recalls and disagrees with the conclusions of the administrative investigation. It asserts that there was no legal authority to exempt distributors from recall procedures, creating a legal gap. The findings raise questions about possible criminal and disciplinary responsibilities. It also highlights the lack of response to citizen letters concerning dangerous Takata airbags.
