Concern

Wiring harness may chafe on steering column

Defect, as DVSA words it

When turning the steering wheel the electrical wiring cable harness can chafe on the steering column. In the worst case a short circuit may occur.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Examine harness for chafing damage and repair or renew as appropriate.

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.
