Many taxi companies in U.S. aren’t required to fix cabs after safety recalls
The Center for Auto Safety is the nation’s premier independent, member driven, non-profit consumer advocacy organization dedicated to improving vehicle safety, quality, and fuel economy on behalf of all drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.
“There’s no way for a customer to know,” said Jason Levine, the center’s executive director.
Only San Francisco requires cabs to be screened for recalls, he said.
“There are no cosmetic recalls. Recalls are only done for safety reasons, defects or a violation of standards,” he said.
