Concern

Possible twisting of rear axle

Defect, as DVSA words it

A) Under extreme circumstances it is possible for the rear axle to twist. b) Throttle linkage may require cleaning and lubrication.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

The affected machines are being recalled for:- A) Replacement of the rear axle with a modified unit. B) At the same time the throttle linkage control pin will be cleaned and lubricated.

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.
