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 12376–12400 of 15,570 recalls.
STABILITY MAY BE LOST
The retaining seal on the RSU may fail allowing oil and gas to escape. This will reduce the damping performance of the unit and if not rectified could lead to oil contamination of the tyre which could cause loss of stability.
Recall affected machine and replace RSU with quality assured component.
SEMI TRAILER COULD UNCOUPLE
There is a possibility that the semi trailer may uncouple due to the locking pin in the fifth wheel's control handle being insufficient.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the serial number of the fifth wheel and where necessary fit a locking pin kit.
FUEL PRESSURE SENSORS MAY BE DEFECTIVE
The fuel pressure sensor might become defective. If it does become defective it will cause erratic idle speed and possible cutting out.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the fuel pressure sensor and where necessary replace the sensor with a quality assured sensor.
OIL MAY LEAK
It is possible that the oil filter housing to be pierced by the valve cone. This could lead to loss of oil and engine seizure.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the oil filter housing.
BRAKE DISCS MAY BECOME INSECURE
In later models the bolts retaining the front brake disc may not remain secure for their service life. In earlier models the head of the bolts may damage the speed sensor cable when the machine is ridden.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to 1. (earlier models) fit new threaded fasteners to the brake disc and alter the speed sensor cable routing. 2. (later models) alter the speed sensor cable routing.

VEHICLE NOT FITTED WITH A MECHANICAL PARKING BRAKE
Vehicle not fitted with a mechanical parking brake.
Recalled vehicles will be fitted with a mechanical parking brake.
WHEEL MAY DETACH
It has been identified that the possibility exists that the wheel bearing retaining circlip may not have been put in place during manufacture. Should this be the case the possibility exists that the affected wheel assembly might detach.
Recalled vehicles will be checked for the presence of the circlip. Should it be necessary the entire brake assembly will be changed.
IDLE SPEED MAY BECOME UNSTABLE
Engine idle speed may become unstable and the engine may even stall whilst the machine is stationary or possibly moving slowly at idle speed as a result of water ingress into the throttle position sensor.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the throttle position sensor.
FUEL MAY LEAK
Fuel may leak from the fuel tank as a result of the breather getting trapped by neighbouring components.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to re-route the fuel tank breather pipe.
REAR SPROCKET RETAINING BOLTS MAY WORK LOOSE
It has been identified that under extreme and aggressive riding conditions the rear drive sprocket retaining bolts may work loose. This condition is the first instance communicated to the rider by means of noise and vibration
Recalled machines will be inspected for rear drive sprocket bolt security
ELECTRONIC COOLING FAN CONTROL MODULE MAY OVERHEAT
In markets where salt is used on roads in winter corrosion may form and propagate into the electronic fan control module and in extreme cases may cause the module to overheat. In rare cases the overheating may be sufficient to ignite the module surrounding wiring and components.
Recall affected vehicles and replace the cooling fan and motor assembly.
BRAKING ASSISTANCE MAY BE LOST
Possible oil seepage in the brake assistance circuit that could damage the brake amplifier membrane and reduce braking assistance.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the vacuum circuit valve and pipe which link the vacuum pump to the brake amplifier.
BRAKES MAY FAIL
Braking maybe impaired due to some brake pipes not being manufactured to conformity.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the serial numbers of the brake pipes and to replace the brake pipes where necessary.
BRAKING ASSISTANCE MAY BE LOST
Possible oil seepage in the brake assistance circuit that could damage the brake amplifier membrane and reduce braking assistance.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the vacuum circuit valve and pipe which link the vacuum pump to the brake amplifier.
FUEL MAY LEAK
It has been identified that the possibility exists that a fuel line within the scuttle panel area may be in contact with the engine compartment cover. This can result in a knocking noise and the fuel line becoming damaged with the attendant possibility that a fuel leak may occur.
Recalled vehicles will have the routing of the fuel line changed and an additional spacer fitted. In the event of damage to the fuel line it will be replaced.
RISK OF FIRE
It has been identified that engine coolant might be drawn into the left side cooling fan motor connector. Should this occur an electrical short circuit will arise which may result in a fire within the engine compartment.
Recalled vehicles will have a left side radiator cooling fan motor wire overlay installed. Additionally the left side cooling fan motor connector will be inspected for damage. Vehicles found with a damaged radiator cooling fan motor connector will have the fan motor replaced.
VEHICLE WEIGHT INFORMATION IS INCORRECT
It has been identified that the vehicle manufacturer's weight label located on the driver's side B pillar contains incorrect information.
Recalled vehicles will be fitted with the correct weight label.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE MAY ALLOW A MOMENTARY DELAY IN BRAKE APPLICATION.
It has been established that the software programmed into the electronic brake control module (EBC) may permit a momentary delay in brake application when coasting uphill during certain conditions.
Recalled vehicles will have the EBC reprogrammed.
FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS COULD BREAK UNDER CERTAIN OPERATING CONDITIONS.
It has been identified that the front brake calipers may have been incorrectly manufactured and as such could fail under certain operating conditions.
Recalled vehicles will have the build codes on both front brake calipers checked. Those calipers found to be within the specified build code will be replaced.
