What can go wrong

A concern has been identified relating to the incorrect assembly of the rear axle. This may result in excessive wear of the wheel bearings which will lead to noise occurring from the rear axle. If this is not rectified the bearing may ultimately fail resulting in the assembly becoming detached from the axle.

The fix

Recalled vehicles will be checked and fitted with new halfshafts as required.

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
