Concern

2nd row seat backrest may not latch correctly

Defect, as DVSA words it

The back-rest of the 2nd seat row may not completely latch in. In an accident this could increase the risk of injury because the seat belts are attached to the back-rest.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the bowden cable of the double seat bench.

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.
