Concern

Possible unintentional increase of engine speed

Defect, as DVSA words it

The throttle valve may become stuck when the accelerator pedal is fully or almost fully depressed leading to possible unintentional increase of engine speed. This is caused by interference of the cruise control cable connector with the engine cover.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Modify the engine cover to prevent the cover from interfering with the cruise control cable.

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.
