Concern

Directional control may be lost

Defect, as DVSA words it

Due to incorrect specified locknuts it is possible for the steering column universal joint clamp nut and bolt to loosen. This can result in a reduction of clamping force and subsequent detachment of the steering column universal joint which can result in loss of directional control.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the affected vehicles to check and replace the subject nuts. If movement is detected between the joint and column the dealer will contact MAN UK for instruction on the course of rectification.

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.
