What can go wrong

On a very limited number of vehicles it is necessary to check the presence of specific spot welds on the vehicle body shell. Should it be identified that one of the welds has been missed in production the vehicle cannot be repaired. In the long term and in very rare cases body noises and squeaking could appear.

The fix

In the rare case that the vehicle does not comply the vehicle will be removed from the road and the customer will be provided with a replacement vehicle.

Models and build dates

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.
