Concern

Fifth wheel mounting plate may detach

Defect, as DVSA words it

The fifth wheel mounting plate may become loose or in the worst case fall off as a result of the mounting bolts being inadequate.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the fifth wheel mounting plate screws with longer higher strength screws spacing sleeves and lock nuts.

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.
