DVLA recall archive
The archive holds 15,570 DVLA vehicle safety recalls dating back to 1992. Filter by manufacturer, year, or keyword. To check whether a specific vehicle is affected by an outstanding recall, run a live VRM recall check for £1.99.
Showing 826–850 of 1,008 recalls.
POSSIBLE FUEL LEAK
There is a possibility of a restriction in a T - Piece in the fuel return line which could lead to a pressure build up which could blow the pipe off with resulting leakage of fuel.
Recall affected vehicles and replace T - Piece with quality assured type.
INSUFFICIENT SEALING MAY CAUSE CORROSION ON THE BALL JOINT
Insufficient sealing may cause corrosion of the ball joint which leads to premature wear of the rear axle V stay
Recall affected vehicles check and if necessary replace ball joint.

REPROGRAMMING OF ENGINE ECU
Faulty software in the engine ECU will result in the engine exhaust emissions failing to comply with the regulations.
Re program the engine ECU.

POSSIBLE FRACTURE OF REAR AXLE U BOLTS
The material hardness of the rear axle spring U bolts may be too high. As a consequence they could break and allow dislocation of the axle.
Check the tioghtness of the rear axle spring U bolts. If any U bolt breaks before the the specified torque is achieved all U bolts on the affected axle must be replaced.

POSSIBLE FUEL LEAK
The glass fibre content in the fuel pipe clamps may wear through the various pipes which comprise the engine fuel supply system. This could result in fuel leaks and a loss of power.
Fit modified rubber protected fuel pipe clamps also cable ties where specified.
POTENTIAL LOSS OF POWER STEERING.
The power steering servo hose may become detached at its connection with the steel pressure supply pipe. This will result in loss of the servo oil and make the vehicle difficult to steer.
Cut the original hose and remove it from the steering gear. Fit a new high pressure hose which has a nut and ferrule fixing arrangement.

PARKING HEATER DOES NOT COMPLY WITH ADR SPECIFICATION
The parking heater has not been fitted with a short duration timer to reduce the fire risk when carrying volatile loads.
Fit a short duration timing device to the heater system.
POSSIBLE MALFUNCTION OF ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The engine management system could possibly continue to use the the last received data from the vehicle ECU. For example in the event of a datalink short the vehicle may not switch to limp home mode but continue to respond to the last received command from either the throttle or cruise control.
Re-programme the engine ECU (EECU).

FAULTY SOFTWARE INSTALLED IN ENGINE ECU
Engine speed maybe reduced to idle without warning due to faulty software in the ECU.
Re programme the ECU with new software.
ALTERNATOR CABLE TERMINALS MAY BE LOOSE.
The alternator cable terminals may not have been tightened on the rear plate.
Check security of terminal fasteners and tighten them to the specified torque where found necessary.
POSSIBLE FUEL LEAKAGE
The engine fuel injectors may suffer a quality problem concerning the connection to the supply pipe. This may cause cracking of the connection and a consequential fuel leak.
Check and/or change the injectors.

INSUFFICIENT TORQUE ON FASTENERS FOR AUXILIARY STEERING ARMS
The tightening torque of the threaded fasteners securing the auxiliary steering arms to the frame may be too low.
Check and tighten the fasteners to the specified torque where found necessary.
INCORRECT LOAD DISTRIBUTION BETWEEN THE DRIVE AND PUSHER AXLE.
A fault exists in ECS that controls the load distribution between the drive and pusher axle. This can cause incorrect loadings on the axles.
Download new software for the air suspension control model.
DETACHABLE TOW BAR MAY WORK LOOSE
Under certain conditions the detachable tow bar may work loose resulting in the tow bar becoming detached from the vehicle.
Replace the tow ball and housing with a calibrated unit.
