Special Presentation at ARA 2015: Recalls and Recycling

for Salvage on Thursday, October 8, 2015 by Brittany Barrett

Don’t miss out on Jay Svendsen and Don Elliot’s presentation at the 2015 ARA Convention and Expo taking place in Charlotte, NC from October 7th - October 10th.

Learn the recycler’s responsibilities when they acquire a salvage vehicle with an open recall. How can you determine if there is an open recall on acquired inventory? Are all recalls the same? Which parts on the car might have liability if they are resold? Does NMVTIS reporting of a salvage vehicle close out a recall notice? What vehicles require NMVTIS reporting and who is checking for compliance? Why don’t the OEMs provide an easy way to track recalls, part numbers and repairs through the recycling process? Are Canadian cars subject to the same regulations as US cars? What can a recycler do to figure out potential issues with vehicles before they purchase a car?

Jay and Don will be answering all these questions and more. Click here for more information on this year’s ARA’s 72nd annual Convention and Exposition. The presentation will be on Friday, October 9 at 10:45am to 11:40am in room 213CD.
