Concern

Steering wheel may be adjusted whilst driving

Defect, as DVSA words it

The driver can adjust the steering wheel position while the vehicle is in motion. The vehicle may become difficult to control if the driver was to adjust the steering position while driving.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit an Interlock device so adjustment can only be made while the handbrake is applied.

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, because DVSA lists none for this recall. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
