Concern

Fire may occur

Defect, as DVSA words it

In very specific riding terrains and conditions i.e. vehicle driven in water (minimum of 310 mm 12 inches deep) containing an significant quantity of floating debris such as grass hay and leaves a significant accumulation of debris may accumulate in a short period of time in the exhaust area. This accumulation could lead to a vehicle fire when the exhaust pipe is hot and the debris are dried.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to ascertain the usage and where necessary fit an additional grille. Additionally an addendum to the Owner's Manual will be included in both hard copy and to the on-line downloadable version which explains about the necessity to clean out the debris and how to reach the areas the debris needs cleaning from.

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.

Reading this against the source

This page is what the DVSA published in its file of vehicle recalls, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /uk-recalls, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
