FUEL MAY LEAK
The fuel return pipe on 2.0 16v JTD engine variants may interfere with the engine mounting and/or fuel filter.
Check and re-route the pipe and fit a protective sheath.
FIRE MAY OCCUR
The layout of the ABS wiring maybe incorrect in the area of the battery holding unit. The wiring may on some vehicles maybe trapped and pinched exposing wiring in some area. this may cause damage and in extreme cases a potential risk of fire.
Repair to inspect and repair the wiring using industry accepted soldered connectors

LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL
The upper fork on the steering shaft fork may not have been correctly fixed/'staked' onto the shaft. This may cause a knock from the steering and in extreme cases the fork may separate from the shaft and result in loss of steering control.
To check the shaft for the presence of the 2 'Stake' markings.

BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE AFFECTED
The threaded portion of the brake linkage rod in the brake control system may not be to conformity. This could result in a reduction of braking efficiency.
Recall affected vehicles to check rod and replace if found not to meet conformity.
THE WRONG AIRBAG MAY DEPLOY IN A COLLISION
In the case of a side impact the wrong airbag could deploy as a result of a software non-compliance.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to apply a software update.

LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL
The steering column upper shaft fixing bolt may not have had thread locking agent applied to it during assembly. This may allow it to come loose causing a noise. In extreme cases this may result in a loss of steering control.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary fit a bolt affixed with pre applied locking compound.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary fit a bolt affixed with pre applied locking compound.
VEHICLE STABILITY MAYBE AFFECTED
It has been established that the anti-roll bar may not conform to specification. This should result in a noise from the suspension but in extreme cases vehicle stability could be compromised.
Recall affected vehicles and replace anti-roll bar with quality assured one.
FIRE MAY OCCUR
The fuel return pipe may contact the engine sound insulation cover. This may cause a deterioration of the pipe and if not rectified a leak of fuel.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit a holding fastener to the fuel return pipe.
BRAKING PERFORMANCE MAYBE AFFECTED
Vehicles fitted with rear brake drums may suffer contamination of the brake lining. This is due to the entry of water and detritus into the drum through the back plate.
Recall affected vehicles to fit a gasket to the back plate where the handbrake cable enters the brake drum through the back plate.
HEADLIGHTS MAY FAIL
The headlights may fail because of a Body Control Computer software problem.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to update the software.
STEERING MAY FAIL
It has been identified that the tightening torque of the steering shaft upper fixing bolt may not be correct. This may result in the emission of noise and in extreme cases breakage of the shaft which will result in loss of steering control.
Recalled vehicles will have the subject bolt checked for correct torque which if necessary will be set to the correct specification. If the torque is outside of the rework stipulated range the shaft will be replaced.

POSSIBILITY OF FIRE
There is a possibility of a short circuit in the ABS control unit due to infiltration of chemical solutions.
Recall affected vehicles and replace ABS module with modified type which is also fitted with plastic cover
BRAKE PEDAL MAY NEED INCREASED FORCE DURING APPLICATION
There is a possibility that the valve in the Brake Booster Vacuum Pump may not be compliant. This can result in loss of vacuum assistance.
