What can go wrong

Incorrect fuel pump seals were provided to all markets as Aftersales (AS) service parts for the Subject Vehicles. There is a possibility that some of them were used for the replacement and/or repair. In the event that the incorrect Aftersales service parts were used for replacement and/or repair there may be a possibility of fuel leakage under vehicle rollover conditions.

The fix

On affected vehicles replace fuel pump seal

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.
