Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? This is about some Opel and Vauxhall cars made by the company. A small computer inside the engine may send wrong numbers. This can make the car put out too much pollution.

What's happening? The cars were built with a bad computer program. Because of this, the cars may pollute more than the law allows.

Does this affect me? If you own a Crossland X or a Corsa made by Opel or Vauxhall, this could affect you.

What should I do? Take your car to a dealer to have the computer fixed. Ask your dealer or a mechanic for help.
