Bumper Recall

So as a new FIT owner I just found out that Honda voluntarily recalled some of the 2015 Fit models because the front bumper did poorly on crash test.

I went to the Honda site and punched iny VIN and it says that no recall or service bulletin is found for my VIN.

I hope this repository look up is accurate. So I guess there's no way to determine if mine was a recall, repaired and put back out?

Anyone here affected by this recall?

The affected cars were built before June 15, 2014; if I recall correctly, the first 12,000 cars. Check your build date on your door jam, but if it's new, it almost certainly is fine. And yes, mine was replaced without incident.

Mine was, and they quickly identified my VIN. No problem, other than the dealer. Not really sure if he acutually did the work or just submitted it to Honda for payment. Not a trustworthy dealer, unfortunately.

Mine is stamped 6, 2014 but no recall notice upon typing VIN info so I guess mine was after June 15th.
