Default recalls?

if there was a recall on your car how long do you have to bring it there, as i just noticed there were 2 recalls on the 94 accord in 96 and 2001 and i have not taken it to either one. is it too late or are the obligated to do the repairs for me?

I would still recommend getting the recalls done (you will have to pay for them though) because one of them is getting a clamp/brace put on the balance shaft seal. IF this backs out - your engine will **** it's oil out all over the ground.

They weren't safety recalls, they were product updates. There's a difference.
