What can go wrong

It has been identified that water may ingress the brake drums causing premature brake lining wear. Should this occur the brake effort produced by the rear wheels may be reduced.

The fix

Recalled vehicles will have a seal fitted to the handbrake cable and the subject brake linings 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.
