Concern

Parking brake may inadvertently apply

Defect, as DVSA words it

Affected vehicles maty be assembled with T nipples in the air tubes which are not to specification. Air tubes may become insecure amd may cause the parking brake to inadvertently apply.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Identify defective T nipples and replace.

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.
