What can go wrong

It has been identified that some ground connections of the cabin wiring harness and the fixings of the airbag control unit may not be to specification. This issue or non-compliance could cause erratic malfunctions of certain electrical equipment even in very rare cases causing the engine to cut-off or airbags malfunction.

The fix

Recall all affected vehicles to check tightness of the ground connections and airbag control unit fixings. If required these will need rectification.

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.
