Concern

Possibility that brake lights may stay on

Defect, as DVSA words it

The brake light switch may become maladjusted if an upward force is inadvertently applied to the brake pedal. This may cause the brake lights to remain illuminated without the brake being applied. If ignored this condition may result in the vehicle being driven with the brake lights permanently illuminated. Also if affected the brake lights may remain illuminated with the vehicle ignition switched off which may result in a discharged battery.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit a modified brake lamp switch.

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.

Reading this against the source

This page is what the DVSA published in its file of vehicle recalls, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /uk-recalls, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
