Concern

Brake fluid may leak

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been identified that on affected machines equipped with a CBS - combined braking system the height of the lip seal within the Proportional Control Valve (PCV) unit may be incorrect which may result in brake fluid leakage. Should the machine be used in this condition the rear brake may eventually become inoperative.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Potentially affected machines will be recalled inspected and rectified if necessary using a countermeasure Proportional Control Valve.

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.
