Steering mounting bolt recall (corrosion)
Manufacturer recallŠkoda is recalling around 1.72 million Kodiaq, Karoq, Octavia and Superb vehicles, including some Octavia IIIs: a steering mounting bolt can corrode and break, with a risk of steering failure. Dealers replace it free of charge; the production periods cited vary between sources, hence a check by VIN.
Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
