Concern

Steering wheel may detach

Defect, as DVSA words it

It is possible that the nut securing the steering wheel was not correctly tightened when the vehicle was assembled. This could lead to abnormal noise and free play at the steering wheel. If these warnings are ignored the nut could eventually come off and the steering wheel could separate from the steering shaft causing loss of steering ability.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the steering wheel securing nut is tightened to the correct torque.

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.
