I actually think I missed that one myself. I may give my local dealer a call to check on that as mine would have been included within that lot.
I had been thinking about a different recall when I made my suggestion before.

Checked with the dealer and yes this had been done although he said it was done in July 2009 which was actually prior to the recall date given on VOSA...
I suppose I have a good excuse for not remembering as I had a new baby at that point so I probably drove there in my sleep.

mine was done before VOSA recall date, I think fiat sent letters to all original buyers before the VOSA recall was made public.
If you have original service book there is a section after the service stamps which is titled recalls i think. i have it in my book anyway

That's probably why I didn't remember going in September 2009 or afterwards, lol.
