Concern

The front lower ball joint locating bolt and fixing nut might have been incorrectly tightened or not fitted correctly

Defect, as DVSA words it

The front lower ball-joint locating bolt and fixing nut might have been incorrectly tightened or not fitted correctly.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Replace the bolts and fixing nuts that attach both of the front lower ball joints to the front hub assemblies.

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.
