Just checked with Vauxhall recall and mine is fine, so new one's may be ok

best checking with the vauxhall dealer with newer 1.8SRi's. They may have done the fix to new ones which are still in the showroom, but there might be 1 or 2 which slips through :(

Am I right that recalls are done at no cost to the customer.
