Can a retailer sell a car to me with an outstanding recall?

 

A retailer should not sell a car to you with known faults or concerns, including those which are the subject of a vehicle recall.

In addition, The Motor Ombudsman’s Vehicle Sales Code makes reference to the fact that any faults on a vehicle, including those highlighted by a recall, need to be fixed before going on sale and delivery to a customer.
