Concern

Brake efficiency may be reduced

Defect, as DVSA words it

The front wheel arch liners may have been incorrectly positioned which may cause them to rub against the front brake hoses. In rare circumstances this could cause a low leakage from both front flexible brake hose leading to gradual increased brake pedal travel in extreme cases a sudden bursting of the flexible hose with sudden increased brake travel and a resultant affect on the braking efficiency. A warning light indicating a low brake fluid level will be displayed on the dashboard.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and inspect the front wheel arch liners and brake hoses. Where necessary reposition the wheel arch liners and replace the brake hose/s.

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.

Renault ZOE in the other registers

This site holds seven national and European registers. Renault ZOE is named on 11 European notices and 1 Israeli. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.

Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

Renault elsewhere in this register

Renault is named on 196 notices in the copy of the DVSA’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same concern: BRAKE EFFICIENCY MAY BE REDUCED

2 notices in this register name BRAKE EFFICIENCY MAY BE REDUCED. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

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.
