Concern

Possibility of brakes locking on

Defect, as DVSA words it

On a limited batch of caravan axles there exists a possibility of the expander clutch disengaging from the brake shoes. This is due to the introduction of a modified shoe which offers slightly less engagement with the expander clutch. Should the problem occur it may cause the brakes to bind or lock.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the affected caravans for examination and rework as necessary. Where modified shoes are fitted the existing clutch will be replaced with a modified version. Additionally all boxes of replacement brake shoes will contain a warning that they must be fitted with the latest expander clutch.

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.
