Concern

Rear brakes may fail

Defect, as DVSA words it

Under certain harsh conditions it is possible for the inner section of the rear brake hose to rupture. If a rupture occurs it will lead to the brake fluid leaking and the loss of brake effort.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall all likely to be affected machines and fit a modified rear brake hose. Additionally correctly fit where necessary the connections at the brake caliper and 180 degree adaptor.

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.
