What can go wrong

Due to insufficient strength of the rear axle drive shaft flange a fracture might develop under certain driving conditions. In the most serious case the flange may become detached causing the vehicle to become immobilised.

The fix

Recalled vehicles will have the right and left hand rear axle drive shafts replaced.

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.
