Does a recall affect your MINI Aceman?

Not every MINI Aceman is affected. Each recall covers cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, which DVSA’s file does not list in full. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check with its registration, or ask the manufacturer or a dealer, who can check the VIN.

Check the Interior Mirror Holder Replace if Necessary

Launched 3 July 2026 DVSA recall R/2026/250 Manufacturer ref. 0051530600

Defect
The Safety Recall relates to the interior rear-view mirror. The interior mirror mounting plate may not have been bonded to the windscreen sufficiently. Due to an insufficient adhesive surface on the mounting plate (bracket) the rearview mirror could become partially or even completely detached from the windshield. If the rearview mirror becomes partially or even completely detached this could impair the visibility while driving. In the event of an accident this could increase the risk of injury.
Remedy
On the affected vehicles the windscreen (with mounting plate) will be checked and if necessary replaced
