What can go wrong

It is possible that the wiring harness that is routed under the radiator may not have been fitted correctly. This could result in chaffing or failure of the harness which will either cause electrical failure in systems and overheating.

The fix

Recall all affected vehicles to check harness secure and replace if necessary.

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.
