What can go wrong

The driver's air bag may not correctly deploy because of a faulty welding process on the gas generator. In an air bag deployment the effect of the faulty welding process is to limit the protection and thereby increase the risk of injury.

The fix

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the driver's air bag.

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.
