Concern

Brakes may fail

Defect, as DVSA words it

The brake actuator clamping bands on the front axle may be weakened through fouling the shock absorber top mounting when the steering is on full lock and the brake pads are worn considerably. In time the clamping ring may fail and the braking effort at the front axle will be lost resulting in much longer stopping distances.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the top shock absorber brackets of the front axle and if there has been any signs of fouling fit new actuator clamping rings.

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.
