The #1 Provider of Comprehensive Recall & Retention Solutions

Recall Masters develops solutions that help the automotive industry drive revenue and support retention above and beyond recalls through its R+ Premium solution. The customer acquisition and retention platform leverages best-in-class vehicle owner data to connect 2nd/3rd/4th generation owners – 3X more customers and prospects than what is visible to even the manufacturers. Repeat servicing is supported through a targeted retention card effort that broadens the reach to lost and lapsed customers before they defect. The turnkey, fully-integrated customer lifecycle management solution creates greater recall awareness and helps automakers protect their brand.

For OEMs and many dealerships, recall compliance is not only a priority for mitigating risk, but it’s also paramount for protecting the brand.  More than 1 in 4 vehicles on the road today have an open recall. While it’s a crisis for all consumers and the entire auto industry, it’s also an opportunity for dealerships to be a beacon of safety in their community. We’re proud to deliver results that:

  • Acquire First Time Customers
  • Increase Customer Pay Revenue
  • Increase New Vehicle Sales
  • Win Back Inactive Customers
  • Enhance Overall Service Retention
  • Save CSI & Preserve Brand Integrity
  • Supercharge Retention Efforts with R+ Premium

Explained: Our Proprietary Process for Recall Management

Recall & Vehicle Owner Intelligence

Our technology and knowledgebase make us #1. Trusted by the largest dealer groups and OEMs, our platform analyzes data from more than 50 sources to target strategic recall opportunities. Superior data enables you to service more customers better and faster and upsell more services and vehicle sales.

We Build Your Customized Recall Department

From a Call Center Hotline team that fields consumer inquiries and schedules service appointments to a Recall Department webpage that captures leads, our many innovative solutions are integrated into your existing processes in order to empower your staff and keep consumers connected to your dealership.

Multi-Channel Communications Services

Our ground-breaking, multi-touchpoint communications drive traffic to your dealership. Digital forensics technology identifies active recalls that were never completed. Target 3X more recalls than previously realized by tracking down current/secondary owners. Put OEM and NHTSA-compliant communications to work for you.

High-Engagement Retention Solutions

The data shows that if consumers service with you, there’s a 74% chance they’ll buy their next vehicle from you.  But your retention effort requires a real boost – it needs to convince consumers to take action.  With R+ Premium, RM engages consumers through recalls, then retains new and existing customers through our proprietary retention solutions.

The Results

Every dealership and market is different, but one outcome is consistent – ROI!  These results don’t come easy, as evident in other “recall” efforts that don’t employ digital forensics and multi-channel communications.  It’s one thing to uncover VINs with open recalls, and quite another driving customers into your dealership.

“We were curious about the kind of performance that we would see out of the R+ retention campaign, as our store prides itself on already having great retention. We have seen slow growth in the past, but wanted to see how far we could push it and felt we needed something different. R+ gave us an opportunity to see if we could restore activity while reminding consumers of our quality servicing and great customer service. Today, vehicle owners have more servicing options, but we’re intent on preserving and protecting our customer base as well as to win back some who have defected to retail service centers. We are believers! We’re tracking 192 ROs a month with an average $335 RO amount on a $30 incentive card. Customers feel appreciated and are willing to spend 10X the card amount. Thank you Recall Masters! We can’t wait for our next campaign.”

We’re surrounded by amazing technology, especially in the automotive industry where self-driving cars, EVs and emerging AI innovations take greater control of the driving experience.  It’s also leading to a new generation of drivers who aren’t loyal to any one brand and aren’t passionate about the driving experience.

To the Gen Z’ers, cars aren’t “a thing” anymore.  It probably explains why this younger generation isn’t particularly interested in a relationship with their car dealership – we sell the cars and they just drive away. The one device that seems to break through the noise and impersonal world is the telephone – the unifying technology that spans all generations.

For most of us, our phones live on our person in the form of a mobile phone.  It seems like everywhere you go, the sounds of people on the phone or phones ringing create a backdrop that blends into the canvas – we probably…read the entire blogpost here.

Recap of 2023: Recalls Return to Historic Numbers
