Anyone care to elaborate on what the issue is and which vehicles it relates to for other members to be able to search easily...

Unfortunately not. In my experience 'Recall of the product from end users' basically means there is a fix for it and cars don't need to be taken off sale etc. I've also found where a recall has been announced, dealers only carry out the work when a vehicle is next in for a service.

Yes it would be nice. I called my dealer (Stratstone/Aylesbury) and eventually they told me that there were 3 outstanding recalls on my car. When I asked how urgent they were, they told me it would be better if I brought my car to them asap for the work to be done upon which I asked for either a courtesy car or a home collection. They refused both saying that the recalls weren't dangerous enough to warrant either a home collection or courtesy car. So 3 months ago, I paid £70k to this dealer for my car and now it is the subject of 3 recalls already but the dealer can't be arsed to even arrange a courtesy car for me. This definitely would not happen with a BMW or Porsche |

I received a letter on Saturday regarding the wiring recall. Pretty annoyed because my car was back at dealer last week to address a couple of post delivery issues and they didn't mention a thing about this! Surely they should have known?

Me too. Fortunately my RRS is booked in for 3 other recalls this Friday so the letter arrived just in time. What really ![]() I have to say in general that I am appalled that a £70k car could be subject to so many recalls |
