Concern

The micro gas generator within the front seatbelt's retractor may have been damaged

Defect, as DVSA words it

The micro gas generator within the front seatbelt�s retractor may have been damaged and may not act according to the specification in the event of an accident.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

On the affected vehicles the front seatbelts will be checked and replaced if they are found to have been damaged

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

The same recall in other registers

No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
