Should I call my Skoda dealer about the emissions recall?

What should I do with my 2012 deisel skoda should I phone dealer or wait for recall over emissions

Our answer:

Hi Alan,

You can, but you’ll probably just be told to wait. Volkswagen Group announced that it would be recalling 11 million cars globally, and it's estimated that about 80,000 in Ireland will have to have their software changed to fix the issues raised by the current ‘diesel-gate’ scandal. You’ll be contacted in the coming months or so to arrange an appointment with your local dealer. There’s nothing for you to worry about – the costs for all the work will be borne by Volkswagen.
