What can go wrong

Because a rivet may be either missing or incorrectly installed in the steering column in the event of an impact the steering column performance could be compromised.

The fix

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary install a missing rivet or replace an incorrectly installed rivet.

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.
