Concern

Certain burner tubes may not be manufactured to the correct specification

Defect, as DVSA words it

The material composition of certain stainless steel burner tubes are not within the correct specification. This can cause the burner tubes to deteriorate at an accelerated rate and can possibly fail. In extreme cases this could cause a fire or allow exhaust fumes to enter the vehicle. To date there have been no incidents of property damage or personal injury.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Webasto has initiated a recall of all 11 potentially affected units and will replace all affected burner tubes.

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 DVSA lists none for this recall. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
