Following on-site investigations at a supplier, Opel is expanding its safety check for Corsa and ADAM vehicles back to those registered since February 2014.

This is in addition to the vehicles registered since May 2014 that have already been communicated. These additional vehicles may also have been manufactured with the steering system part that did not meet specification and should not be driven prior to inspection.

Opel is connecting with customers via a number of channels. Owners can find out if their vehicle is affected by going to www.opel.ie/recall.html and following the instructions on the website. Concerned customers can contact their Opel dealership during office hours (details available on www.opeldealersireland.ie ) or by contacting the AA after hours on 1800 327 327. If their car is affected, the customer will also be automatically contacted by Opel.

The company first became aware of the condition during routine quality controls at the vehicle production plant. Customers who have additional questions can obtain immediate assistance using the numbers above.
