Defect, as DVSA words it

There should be 2 or 3 slots at each end of the track rod link. The ball joints at the ends of the track rod are secured by tightening a clamp over the slots. In some cases there have been instances of slots missing from the track rod link.�

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Check the correct number of slots at each end of the track rod link. If there are slots missing the track rod must be renewed. For chassis found with incorrect track rods they are not to be released until the part is 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.
