Concern

Air conditioning may fail to de-mist interior windows

Defect, as DVSA words it

The air inlet door linkages to the Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning may detach become detached and depending on operating mode position cause unexpected severe condensation/fogging of the interior windows. At temperatures below 0 degrees Celsius where the linkage detaches in recirculation mode it may not be able to clear condensation/fog from the inside of the front windscreen or other windows which can restrict the driver�s field of vision and could lead to an increased risk of an accident.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and download the latest software to the vehicle. Additionally the actuator arm will be replaced.

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.
