Concern

Improve the protection of front brake hoses

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has become necessary to check the front brake hoses and improve their protection. In extreme cases wear on the hose caused by chafing against the wheel arch could cause a brake fluid leak. The presence of which would initially illuminate the red warning lamp on the dashboard.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall likely to be affected vehicles and check the condition of the front brake hoses. If found to suffering a chafe situation the hoses will be changed. If not the hoses will be checked for orientation and fitted with an additional protective device.

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 the reference DVSA lists is too short to match safely. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
