Great Wall Steed Recalls
There are currently 3 safety recalls out on the Great Wall Steed. To find out whether your car is affected, you'll need to find your car's VIN number.
How to find your VIN
The VIN can often be found on the lower-left corner of the dashboard, in front of the steering wheel.
You can read the number by looking through the windshield. The VIN may also appear in a number of other locations:
- Front of the engine block. This should be easy to spot by opening the bonnet, and looking at the front of the engine.
- Front of the car frame, near the container that holds windshield washer fluid.
- Rear wheel well. Try looking up, directly above the tyre.
- Inside the driver-side doorjamb. Open the door, and look underneath where the side-view mirror would be located if the door was shut.
- Driver-side doorpost. Open the door, and look near the spot where the door latches, not too far from the seatbelt return.
- Underneath the spare tyre.
If you still can't locate the VIN, try consulting your vehicle manual. Or, call a dealership or the manufacturer and request guidance.
