I think the OP said it's not a recall or safety related, so would it still show up on the system?

I asked my dealer about this and they said it should not cause an MOT fail as it is not a formal recall. However, they also said that it would show up in the system as being outstanding if the work was not completed. They also did not put a time limit on when the work should be carried out. In fact they said that I could leave until I was ready to sell the car. :roll:
