Concern

Various - brake and clutch related

Defect, as DVSA words it

1) Due to a defect in the clutch master cylinder the clutch may not disengage. 2) Water ingress to brake servo. 3) The front brake hoses may be incorrectly routed and could in some circumstances contact the retaining bracket nut. 4) Possible contamination

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the affected vehicles and:- 1) Check build date and replace clutch master cylinder where required. 2) Fit a water shield to the brake servo to protect the servo push rod. 3) Check the routing of the front brake hoses re-routing where required.

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.
