HANDBRAKE COULD BECOME INOPERATIVE.
It has been identified that the handbrake lever ratchet may not latch into position when the handbrake is applied due to the possibility of the internal push rod possibly having suffered damage during assembly. With continued usage the push rod joint can become worn causing the handbrake ratchet mechanism not to latch sufficiently. Should this occur the handbrake will become inoperative.
Recalled vehicles will have the handbrake mechanism replaced.
ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
The fuel pump relay may fail which will result in either the engine not starting or stalling.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary place the fuel pump relay.
LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS MAY NOT OPERATE.
Dipped beam headlights may malfunction either when switched on or during driving.
Recall likely to be affected vehicles and replace the headlight switch with a modified part. Additionally the terminal for dipped beam operation within the wiring harness will also be changed in order to rectify any heat damage that may have occurred.
