What can go wrong

There is a possibility that tyres could suddenly lose air.

The fix

On the affected vehicles the production data (DOT number) of all tyres including spare wheel are checked and if necessary tyres will be replaced.

Models and build dates

As listed in the DVSA recall file. DVSA lists the same vehicle number on each line: 370. It may be a figure per line or for the whole recall.
Model	Built	Vehicles
Volkswagen Transporter (TRANSPORTER T6)	12 March 2020 to 3 February 2021	370
Volkswagen Transporter (TRANSPORTER T6.1)	12 March 2020 to 3 February 2021	370

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.
