Concern

The corrosion protection of the high voltage battery housing may not be sufficient

Defect, as DVSA words it

The corrosion protection of the high-voltage battery housing may not be sufficient.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Inspect clean and wax the housing of the high-voltage batteries. In cases of existing significant corrosion an affected battery module would be renewed.

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.
