Concern

Wheel rims may crack

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been identified that a number of vehicles have been fitted with steel road wheels which may crack.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recalled vehicles will be checked in order to identify any suspect wheel rims which if found will be changed for quality assured items.

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.
