Carma Project's Data Privacy Promise

Carma Project was founded as a response to the needless injury and death caused by dangerous automotive safety recalls that are not fixed. In 2021, our cars drove overs 1 million miles, notifying vehicle owners of the deadly Takata Airbag Recall. Our company is directly responsible for getting tens of thousands of dangerous airbags off the road.

In support of this mission, Carma Project uses ALPR technology as a way to quickly identify recalled vehicles that remain unrepaired. By identifying an affected vehicle, Carma Project is able to inform owners about urgent recalls and provide important information on how a recalled vehicle can be fixed for free.
