Driving home is an option but do realize that insurance is likely invalidated.
I'm not so sure.
If one were to contact the insurer and say "Help, I've been instructed not to drive the car and I need to get home" then they would pay for recovery, but if you were on holiday and not in contact with your dealer or MMC how would you know of the recall?
To invalidate the policy, the insurance company would have to somehow prove that you knew of the recall and were aware that you had been instructed (not just advised) not to drive the vehicle, and that you had been instructed on how to arrange for return of the vehicle in a safe manner.
Otherwise there would an entirely legitimate response of "I knew I had to return the car to my dealer and I was doing just that". If they were a dodgy cheapo insurer they might try to wiggle out of first-party costs, but they'd still honour third-party claims in the event of any accident.
