Concern

Steering may become limited or blocked

Defect, as DVSA words it

The front suspension road spring eye mounting bolts may not have been torqued to the correct specification. During operation it is possible that the spring eye mounting bolts could work loose and unwind. This could result in the movement of the axle which could compromise the directional control of the vehicle. However the driver should become aware of the issue by noise or found by the maintenance staff during routine maintenance.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall all affected vehicles to retorque the mounting bolts.

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.
