Vauxhall astra mk6 - Faults and steering problem after recall. - Latkins52

Hello,took my astra to a main dealer for a recall, which included Apply wax to fuel cap Wiring on cooling fan Reprogram, which I'm guessing is a software update Picked the car up and noticed the car now pulls to one side and I have the car skidding symbol up and service esp in notification window. Took it back to the garage, they said it's can't be anything we have done and sent me on my way. Any ideas??

Take it back to them, and explain, firmly, that it was working perfectly when you dropped it off. So they are resonsible for fixing it. If they refuse, ask for Vauxhall UKs details, and phone up and complain there and then.

Cheers for the reply, it's going back in on Friday. They said they would plug it in to their computer free of charge, but still claim it's not something they have done. Had to drive it to work tonight, it's probably a bit dangerous. Surely when they plug it in the dates and times of the faults will relate to when they had the car???? Or doesn't it work like that??

I am very keen to know did you get this sorted? We are having the exact same problem following the same recall. The Dealer said it was nothing to do with them, just a coincidence.

Straight ahead calibration may have been lost - does the car start to pull above a certain speed?

On another point Vauxhall programmed a spare key for my car and managed to goose the traction control system and it would kick in when load was put on the engine. Completely unrelated and I couldn't understand how they did it. It was fixed without question
