Concern

Seat belt may not retract correctly

Defect, as DVSA words it

It is possible for the retractor mechanism to allow the webbing to pay out to its full extent. This would result in the occupant not being fully restrained in their seat. This situation would only occur in extreme circumstances during a collision.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall and replace all affected belts.

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. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
