Concern

Potential detachment of the wheel

Defect, as DVSA words it

A particular batch of Knott bearings wheel bearings are known to have a defective seal and these bearings are exhibiting premature failure in service with the possibility of total bearing collapse. Signs of failure include: excessive grease leakage into dust cap and onto drum face rumbling bearing when wheel is spun by hand and noticeable play in bearing when wheel is rocked by hand. If the above signs are ignored it is possible for the wheel and hub to detach and the stability of the trailer to be adversely affected.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

The owners of the trailers will be alerted to the concern via a letter and also told to check for failure indicators daily until the bearings have been replaced with quality assured units.

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.
