Vauxhall Motors is recalling c355,000 Corsa C generation 3 and 5-door models built

between 2004 and 2006 and Combo Van and Tigra models built between 2004 and

2008 to replace the ABS brakes control unit.

The new D generation Corsa 3 and 5-door models introduced in 2006 are not affected by this action.

Earlier this year Vauxhall completed an investigation into thermal incidents involving

the previous generation Corsa and its derivatives. these investigations confirmed that

vehicles which had previously undergone a recall rectification of the engine wiring

harness, have an extremely low risk of a thermal incident.

The safety and quality of Vauxhall products remains the Company's highest priority, it

therefore considers any fault unacceptable. Upon further technical evaluation and

additional testing it was determined that new components were required, including an

ABS control unit and cover assembly. These new components are now available and

Vauxhall is launching a recall in line with VOSA guidelines.

Vauxhall is contacting owners by letter from Friday December 14th recognising that a

recall of this size must be completed in phases to ensure proper care of its customers

- who are advised to continue using their vehicles in the normal manner.

Vauxhall asks customers to please wait for their recall letter which will request that

they contact their Vauxhall Retailer to make an appointment. this will ensure that their vehicle is reworked quickly and efficiently in line with the phased programme.

Corsa owners who have any concerns about their car or the recall plan should call

Vauxhall customer service on 0845 090 2044 or via email at

vauxhall.customerassistance@uk.gm.com.
