Now report car defects on Parivahan vehicle recall portal

MoRTH will perform screening, analysis and investigation of the vehicles and will announce a recall if required.

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has launched a Vehicle Recall Portal on the Parivahan website, that enables users to register complaints about defects in their vehicles.

Once registered, users can submit complaints about faults in their vehicle, a specific component or software that may pose a risk to road safety or the environment. The complaint can be registered if the vehicle is within 7 years of purchase. Based on the complaints received, MoRTH will perform screening, analysis and investigation of the vehicles and will announce a recall if required.

There was a need for a centralized agency like the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that would monitor, investigate and rectify defects in vehicles through safety recalls in India. The latest initiative by the government is certainly a step in the right direction
