What can go wrong

It is possible that the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) do not function correctly when the turn signal indicator is actuated. The opposite DRL (rather than adjacent) may turn off when the turn signal is activated. This could result in confusion for other road users.

The fix

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the function of the lights and where necessary modify the wiring.

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.
