What can go wrong

There is a possibility the lower control arm might not meet manufacturing specification due to missing weld seams. In the event of the lower control arm not meeting specification this could potentially lead to a lower arm failure. If this happens the user may experience potential limited steerability causing a hazard to vehicle occupants and to other road users.

The fix

Visual inspection of affected parts. Any vehicle that has failed this inspection will have the affected part replaced.

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.
