“Reporting Safety Defects”

 

If  you  believe  that  your  vehicle  has  a  defect 

which could cause a crash or could cause injury or 

death, you should immediately inform the National 

Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 

addition to notifying Demco Manufacturing Company

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may 

open an investigation, and if it finds that a safety 

defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a 

recall  and  remedy  campaign.    However,  NHTSA 

cannot  become  involved  in  individual  problems 

between you, your dealer, or (DEMCO).
