Alright just got off the phone with the DMV.
I have a MY2013 BRZ that was recalled.
I received my notice of recall at the same time I received my renewal (within 2 weeks).
I just had moved addresses so I filled out my renewal and hoped all would go through without doing the recall.
Nothing came in the mail. Checked my old address, nothing in the mail.
Shit shit shit. Procrastination set in and I did not check on it. Because the money for the renewal was withdrawn from my account (or I cut a check, I cant remember) I thought my registration was good.
So I decided to call the DMV mainly because this post and also because I would like my tags I paid for.... and here's the scoop.
You have to have the recall done before you register your car again.
I was lucky to fall into this window where the DMV wasn't notified of the recall before I got my registration. So I am having replacement tags being sent to me (Or Im going into the DMV and getting them day of). However, when my car goes up for 2021 registration I must have the recall performed otherwise I will not be able to renew my registration. If you have not renewed your car yet, and you got a recall notice, you will need to have the recall done.
My car registration is due before May every year. Just an FYI.
