Concern

Possibility of underbonnet fire

Defect, as DVSA words it

The active cornering enhancement system pump banjo bolt may loosen and allow fluid to leak past the joint. Resultant oil contamination of the engine compartment may lead to an underbonnet fire.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Check the pump banjo union for leaks and tighten the union bolt to the specified torque 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. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
