Concern

Rear brake rollers concern

Defect, as DVSA words it

Insufficient initial lubrication of the rear brake shoe rollers may result in excessive wear of the rollers and failure or lock-up of the rear brakes.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Examine the rear brake rollers pins and shoes for excessive wear and damage. Fit new components where necessary.

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 DVSA lists none for this recall. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
