Concern

Possible fouling of brake pipes

Defect, as DVSA words it

Due to incorrect routing of the pipes connecting the brake pumps to the hydraulic accumulators there is a possibility of a foul condition between these pipes which if not corrected could result in brake failure.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

The affected vehicles are being recalled for inspection of the hydraulic pipes concerned. Where pipe clearance is found to be insufficient this will be adjusted to accord with the manufacturers specification.

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.
