What is this? This is about a car safety issue with some Opel and Vauxhall Grandland cars. A wire bundle near the front seats can get damaged.
What's happening? The wires may rub against metal parts when the seat is pushed all the way back. This could stop the airbag from working right and might even cause a fire.
Does this affect me? If you own or use a Grandland made by Opel or Vauxhall, you might be at risk. This affects cars in several European countries.
What should I do? Take your car to a dealer right away. Ask your dealer or a mechanic for help before driving it.
