Concern

Remove engine compartment cover

Defect, as DVSA words it

On affected vehicles engine compartment covers were fitted that if incorrectly installed can come loose from their attachments. An unsecured engine compartment cover could touch the hot area of the turbocharger and result in smouldering damage or even a fire.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

The engine compartment cover must be removed. Check for security prior to journey if loose remove if possible if not contact dealer immediately for rectification.

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.
