What can go wrong

It has been identified that the in-tank electric fuel pump may not be correctly activated following a vehicle start up cycle. As a result it is possible that the engine may cut out whilst driving at a steady state cruising speed and the engine may not be able to be instantly re-started.

The fix

Recalled vehicles will be re-programmed with revised software to ensure that when the engine is running the in-tank fuel pump relay remains energised.

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.
