What can go wrong

For certain vehicles there is an error in the specific software calibrations of the Engine Control Unit. In certain cases this condition may result in a delayed activation of the malfunction indicator (MIL) allowing the vehicle to operate with tailpipe emissions exceeding limits before the MIL is triggered

The fix

Update to the software calibration of the Engine electronic control unit (ECU).

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.
