Concern

Brakes may activate without warning

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been identified that the software on vehicles equipped with Advanced Emergency Braking (AEB) system has an error in its programming. This could cause the AEB system to incorrectly registered a collision risk with a stationary object and brake the vehicle to avoid a collision. This could result in the drive loosing control or an emergency braking situation without the drivers knowledge.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall all affected vehicles and upload new software to the AEB system.

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.
