What can go wrong

In the event of a significant frontal collision the driver's airbag may not deploy correectly due to a non-conformity which occurred in the supplier's production process. The airbag when deployed may cause injury to the driver due to contaminated parts within the airbag module.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the airbag inflator.

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.
