Senators demand Amazon delist used cars with open recalls

Amazon is facing pressure from three U.S. Senators to voluntarily remove or label used vehicle listings on its Autos platform that contain unresolved safety recalls. The lawmakers, Richard Blumenthal, Edward Markey, and Elizabeth Warren, specifically flagged high-volume models like the Ford Bronco and Hyundai Santa Fe, arguing that the e-commerce giant shouldn't rely on customers to check NHTSA databases manually. The letter highlights a current regulatory gap where selling new cars with defects is illegal, but used cars remain exempt, a loophole the proposed Used Car Safety Recall Repair Act aims to close.
