What can go wrong

On affected vehicles the Motor Control Unit does not communicate with the Body Control Unit. This may cause an immobiliser malfunction leading to a possible vehicle non-start and anti-theft protection not guaranteed.

The fix

Pair the Motor Control Unit with the Body Control Unit.

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.
