Abstract
In a first illustrative embodiment, a computer implemented method includes receiving a recall message from a remote source. The method also includes comparing the recall to stored vehicle data to determine if a recall repair has already been completed. The method further includes delivering the recall message to at least one vehicle occupant through a vehicle system, contingent on the non-completion of the recall repair.
