Concern

Sidewall may deform

Defect, as DVSA words it

Deformation in the tyre tread or sidewall. If the tyre is left in service the reinforcing structure may degrade further eventually resulting in rapid deflation.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Manufacturer will replace the defective tyre.

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.
