Concern

Defect, as DVSA words it

Affected vehicles have a fuel tank connecting pipe that may come into contact with the HV Battery protective cover resulting in corrosion causing a hole inside the connecting pipe that may result in a fuel leak.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Remove and replace the fuel tank connecting pipe with a modified type.

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.
