Concern

Brakes may apply inadvertently

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been identified that in rare cases repeated movement of the steering column may cause a signal interruption within the column. If this occurs it can affect the Active Handling System which can cause instability within the vehicle. The driver will be identified of the issue by the illumination of warnings lights on the dash. However if the driver does not take action then a crash could occur.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Inspect the wire connection in the steering column and if necessary install an additional clip to secure the wire connection.

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.
