Concern

Suspension damper concern

Defect, as DVSA words it

The top and bottom rubber bush assemblies can become detached from the suspension damper body. In the worst case the damper could separate from the vehicle whilst it is moving.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the affected trailers check the alignment of the anchorage eye bushes. Fit oversize washers to both sides of the damper bushes if alignment is correct. Replace all dampers found to have misaligned bushes.

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.
