    There is also a page on the AA website http://www.theaa.com/allaboutcars/recalls/index.jsp

    I don't know how accurate these sites are as mine has just had some re-works done on exhaust brackets. This isn't on either of the sites so who knows?

    Seems to be done to how they categorise them! If you search under Vectra C it doesn't show up, yet if you search under Signum it does show up (the exhaust bracket recall) and says it's relevant to both the Vec C and Signum! Go figure! lol

    Not sure if your car is affected or not, but my 53 reg Vectra went in for it's first MOT on Thursday (passed with flying colours, btw) but the garage mentioned that there's a recall on the radiator on my car. Something to do with a breather hose and an inferior retaining clip that needs replacing as it could well leak and Vauxhall recommended it be changed. Fortunately the warranty doesn't run out until the 31st Dec. No idea if it would be covered outside of warranty or not.

    Also I have the common problem of the front NS fog light condensating up. It's already been changed once under Net-Q warranty but apparantly Vauxhall now state that if the condensation clears within 20 mins of the light being turned on then it doesn't need changing. Guess what - the condensation cleared within 10 mins. Oh well, I only use them for their intended purpose (ie for when it's foggy) so perhaps that's why it keeps misting up
