Can it be fixed?

If your car is recalled, it will be checked over and - if there is no damage to the engine wire harness - a protector will be installed. This will take as little as 20 minutes to carry out.

Should damage already exist, the harness will be replaced with a protector in place - a process which could take around four or five hours, depending on the car model.
