Automotive Recall Underwriting Support

Understand the safety and recall exposure behind an automotive component risk. RQA helps product recall underwriters assess what a manufacturer supplies, how its components could fail and how effectively the business manages those risks.

Our work connects product and manufacturing knowledge with experience of safety investigations and recalls, giving underwriting teams a clear view of material issues and information gaps.

Questions a review can address

  • What does the component do, and what could happen if it fails?
  • Could a common issue affect several vehicle models, makes, customers or markets?
  • How are design, process and supplier risks identified and controlled?
  • How are field concerns investigated and escalated?
  • Can potentially affected units be traced and quantified?
  • How prepared is the manufacturer to support or manage a recall?

Scope and output

Depending on the underwriting question, we can review documents, speak with relevant teams and assess product safety controls or recall readiness.

A focused assignment can examine one technical issue; a wider review can consider the manufacturer’s overall approach.

Findings set out the identified exposure, controls in place, material information gaps and prioritised improvements. This gives underwriters a practical basis for follow-up questions and risk discussions with brokers and insureds.
