Models and build dates

As listed in the DVSA recall file. DVSA lists the same vehicle number on each line: 1,924. It may be a figure per line or for the whole recall.
Model	Built	Vehicles

Mazda RX-8	8 April 2008 to 1 July 2010	1,924

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.
