Safety recalls

Attention

Safety recalls may affect this vehicle.

  1. 1 Recall R/2026/002 Takata drivers side front airbag

    Defect: On affected vehicles the propellant in the front airbag may deteriorate due to high humidity and temperature fluctuations. As a result in the event of an accident and airbag deployment fragments could detach from the generator housing and injure the vehicle occupants.

    Remedy: Replace the front airbag on the driver's side.

  2. 2 Recall R/2023/086 From a certain production period there is a possibility that the gas generator cover could be damaged when the driver's airbag is activated

    Remedy: Replace the driver's airbag in affected vehicles.

What should I do?

Contact the manufacturer or an authorised dealer to confirm whether these recalls affect this car and whether any work is required.

Accident history

Full History Report

Insurers record a car as a write-off (Category A, B, S or N) when it’s too damaged or too costly to repair. A repaired write-off can be sold again, but it’s worth less.

Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between a Basic Car Report and a Full History Report?

This Basic Car Report is free and built from public DVLA and DVSA records for HN15 EBL: its MOT history, the mileage recorded at each MOT, tax and SORN status, ULEZ status and safety recalls where available. The Full History Report adds the checks those public records can’t show: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, police stolen records, previous owners, plate changes and mileage records from beyond the MOT.

How can I check if a car has outstanding finance or has been stolen?

Neither is in the Basic Car Report, because public DVLA and DVSA records don’t include finance agreements or police stolen reports; they come from separate finance and police data. The Full History Report checks both for HN15 EBL, along with write-offs and previous owners, before you hand over any money.

What should I check before buying a used car?

Start with the public checks in this report: the MOT history for repeat failures and advisories, mileage readings that rise steadily, tax and SORN status, and any outstanding safety recalls. Then check what public records don’t show: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, stolen records and ownership history. Finally, see the car in person and make sure the V5C logbook and VIN match the car and the seller.

What should I check before buying a used Škoda?

Škodas fail their MOT most often on suspension: 23% of their failures, against 20% for all cars. Brakes account for more of their failures than average, 17% against 15%. In this car’s MOT history above, look for failures and advisories in those areas and ask whether they were fixed.

Are Škodas reliable used cars?

MOT results are a useful public guide. In 2025, Škodas passed 76.4% of their initial MOT tests, 4.1 points above the 72.3% average for all cars and 25th of 63 makes. Older ones pass less often, 86.8% at 3 to 5 years old against 63.8% at 11 years and over, so how this car has been looked after matters most: its MOT history above is the best evidence. Compare every Škoda model’s MOT record.
