Concern

Fuel tank could inflate causing contact with the rear wheel

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been found that some fuel tank ventilation valves are not to the required specification. This concern could lead to a build up of pressure and the fuel tank expanding. If this happens the tank could come into contact with the rear wheel and wear through.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the machines that are likely to be affect to replace the fuel tank ventilation 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.
