Hi guys and girls
my test was moved this week from Wednesday to the Monday coming 
my instructor is going on holiday on Saturday so I can't use his car. I thought I could use my car but on the direct. Gov website is says that 206 were recalled for a brake fault-http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/LearnerAndNewDrivers/PracticalTest/DG_173035
I phoned Peugeot head office and they said there was never a recall on my car!??? Do you think I could get a letter saying this from a dealer for free?
Thanks

Ring your local dealership and they will look at the computer records for your car and see if it has been rectified yet. If not they will fix it for free.

They should give you a note. If they still claim that it doesn't need the recall get something in paper to show your examiner.
Good luck for the test.
