Concern

Unexpected acceleration may occur

Defect, as DVSA words it

The engine ECM unit may have an error with its software. This could under certain exceptional engine start circumstances result in the ECM setting an incorrect engine throttle valve position. When the engine speed is in excess of 3600 rpm the customer may briefly experience an unexpected acceleration. However the driver can counter this by applying the brakes.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall all affected vehicles to install new software.

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.
