Concern

Load net support brackets may fail

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been identified that; certain welds for the front and rear load net fixings may not be to the required specification. In this condition there is a risk that under certain driving conditions such as sudden braking the brackets may fail causing the luggage to become insecure.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recalled vehicles will have the subject welds inspected and re-welded should this prove to be 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, 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.
