Concern

Directional control could be compromised

Defect, as DVSA words it

There is a possibility that a strut top mounting bearing could be damaged when a high load is applied to the strut such as when the vehicle is driven over a large bump. If this occurs there could be abnormal noise when driving on uneven roads or when turning the steering wheel. If the vehicle continues to be operated the upper side of the strut rod could separate causing a loss of vehicle stability which could increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the strut mounting bearings with improved ones. If a strut mounting bearing is found to be damaged the dealer will replace the strut and front suspension support sub-assembly with a new one.

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. 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.

This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Toyota Yaris, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
