4785 Ateco LDV D90 model cars with a year range of 2017-2024 have been recalled.

Due to a manufacturing defect, the T-Piece connector in the coolant pipes may fail. If this occurs, it could lead to a coolant fluid leak. As a result, the engine may overheat and potentially stall leading to a loss of motive power whilst driving.

A sudden loss of motive power whilst driving could increase the risk of an accident causing injury or death to vehicle occupants and/or other road users.

Owners of affected vehicles should contact their preferred authorised LDV dealer to have the work carried out, free of charge.

For further information, please contact your authorised LDV dealer or call LDV Customer Assist 1800 716 894.
