What can go wrong

The resin moulding around the fuel filter water sensor is inadequate. In low temperature environments this can affect the O ring and allow fuel to seep into the sensor. Consequently fuel can then leak out of the sensor through it's breather hole. Additionally maintenance schedules are incomplete.

The fix

Inspect and replace filter if necessary. Revise maintence information

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.
