What can go wrong

The upper cover of the rear spoiler may delaminate and on rare occasions detach from the main body of the rear spoiler.

The fix

Inspect the spoiler assembly and if it has not begun to delaminate a new specification adhesive will be applied. Where the outer surface of the rear spoiler has already detached and has been lost or damaged a new rear spoiler will be installed.

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.
