FAQ
Good to know
Is Motovexa free?
Yes. All features are free and there is no sign-up. The app shows a small number of ads to stay free.
Does a listed recall mean my car is affected?
Not necessarily. Recalls are listed for the make, model and year. Use the “Check this exact VIN” link in the app, or ask an authorized dealer, to confirm. Safety-recall repairs are generally free at authorized dealers.
Where is my data stored?
Your garage, service records and fuel logs stay on your phone. There is no account and we do not run a server that stores them.
