ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
The engine may cut out as a dimensional nonconformity of the earth cable could lead to it breaking.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the battery earth cable.
SUSPENSION BOLT TORQUE MAY BE INCORRECT
The front suspension lower arms may not be fully secure as the mounting bolts may not have been tightened correctly. The driver will initially be alerted to there being a concern because of the abnormal noise that will develop. If the noise is ignored over a long period it is possible the suspension lower arms may detach.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the suspension bolts and tighten them to the correct torque.

VEHICLE MAY CUT OUT
The supply terminal to the engine relay unit may have been over tightened and over time this could damage the component and cause the engine to cut out. In addition this could cause the diagnostic warning lamp to illuminate in error and it may make it more difficult to start the engine.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and if necessary replace the engine relay unit.

THE AMOUNT OF POWER STEERING ASSISTANCE MAY VARY
There is a possibility that a component internal to the steering mechanism may not be manufactured to the correct specification which over time can cause the steering to become either stiff or easier to operate.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the steering mechanism.
SEAT BELT FIXING BOLTS MAY LOOSEN
The fixing bolts of the front LH and RH seat belt return rail may loosen and in cases of extreme force break.
The bolts on the left and right- hand sides will be replaced.

ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
The battery earth return cable is not to the correct specification which during vehicle operation may cause it to fail. This could result in the engine cutting out.
Recall all affected vehicle and replace the battery earth return cable.
BRAKING PERFORMANCE MAY DECREASE
The stroke of the brake pedal which could affect the slowing down of the vehicle may be in excess of manufacturer's recommendations due to the brake bleeding operation not being fully performed.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to ensure the brakes have been fully bled and that brake travel is within manufacturer's recommendation.
