Concern

Cylinder side skirt may become detached

Defect, as DVSA words it

The screws used to secure the side skirt at the cylindrical silencer can lose torque which could result in the side skirt becoming detached from the vehicle.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the fixings and tighten to a torque of 47Nm.

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.
