Concern

Trim may come loose in a collison causing injury

Defect, as DVSA words it

In an accident where the rear seat belt tensioners are triggered the side pillar trim could protrude into the passenger compartment and cause an increased risk of injury for both the front and rear passengers.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the front retaining clips on both side pillar trims.

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 the reference DVSA lists is too short to match safely. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
