Concern

Hydraulic Brake System Unit Replacement

Defect, as DVSA words it

On affected vehicles the brake servomotor was improperly welded. The weld seam might not withstand the stresses caused under high brake pressure leading to a requirement for a higher brake effort increasing the braking distance.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Affected vehicles will have the hydraulic unit of the brake system 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.
