RISK OF FIRE
It has been identified that the possibility exists for the exhaust silencer to fail which can lead to overheating of a wiring harness.
Recalled vehicles will have the exhaust silencer replaced and a heat shield fitted to the subject wiring harness.
RISK OF FIRE
During prolonged use the heater and air conditioning circuit fuse 21 (mini fuse) may overheat in the central fuse holder. Excessive overheating of the fuse can result in melting of the plastic fuse holder.
Recalled vehicles will have fuse 21 replaced with a maxi fuse.
FRONT AXLE COULD BE OUT OF ALIGNMENT
It has been identified that the possibility exists that the front spring spacer plate position may be incorrectand the U bolts may not have been tightened to the correct torque setting.
Recalled vehicles will have the position of the spacer plate checked. The spacer plate will be renewed if found to be incorrectly positioned. In addition the torque of the front spring U bolts will be checked.
POSSIBLE OF LOSS OF POWER STEERING
The possibility exists that power steering may be lost due to chafing of the power steering fluid pipes.
Recalled vehicles will be fitted with clips; and a spacer to separate the power steering fluid pipes.
BRAKES MAY FAIL
The left hand front brake pipe may chafe against the shock absorber which if left could result in brake operation being endangered.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected check the condition and path of the left hand front brake pipe. If necessary re-route or replace the brake pipe.
CAB SIDE MEMBER MAY DEFORM
It has been identified that the cab lower side member may become deformed due to excessive hydraulic tilt pump pressure.
Recalled vehicles will have the cab tilt pump pressure reduced to 310 bar. Should the cab side member be deformed a repair to rectify this will be carried out.
REAR AXLE SPRING SUPPORT BRACKET MAY CRACK
There is a possibility that the rear axle spring support brackets may crack which could affect the vehicle's stability.
Recalled vehicles will have the welding of the spring support brackets checked for cracks. Should any cracking be found the drive axle casing will be changed.
REAR BRAKE PERFORMANCE MAY NOT BE AS EXPECTED
It is possible in an emergency braking situation with fully laden vehicle the rear axle brakes will not be applied as expected giving a rise of extended braking distance.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the brake pressure regulator type fitted to the vehicle is the same as that list on the vehicle plate. If necessary fit a new plate. Check and if necessary adjust the load sensing valve linkage.
PROPSHAFT MAY CONTACT AXLE BEAM
Under certain circumstances it is possible that the distance between the propshaft and the second front axle may be insufficient. Should axle/propshaft contact be made damage to one or both of these components might ensue.
Recalled vehicles will have the clearance between the propshaft and the second front axle beam checked. Should the clearance be outside of the specified parameters the suspension will be adjusted.
ABS MAY NOT FUNCTION
The wiring to the ABS modulator unit may chafe which could result in the ABS system not functioning and the ABS warning lamp illuminating.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and inspect the wiring. Where neccessary repair the wiring and in all cases fit a protective sleeve to the wiring.
THE HEATED WINDSCREEN FUSES MAY OVERHEAT
There is insufficient surface area on the removable link between the two 30 amp heated windscreen fuses. This can resulting in the fuses being overheated.
Recalled vehicles will have a new connection made between the fuse holder pins.
THE HEATED WINDSCREEN FUSES MAY OVERHEAT
There is insufficient surface area on the removable link between the two 30 amp heated windscreen fuses. This can resulting in the fuses being overheated.
Recalled vehicles will have a new connection made between the fuse holder pins.
HEATER CONTROL UNIT MAY MALFUNCTION AND OVERHEAT
It is possible for the Grid Heater Control Unit not to function correctly and cause overheating of the units mounting compound.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit a modified Engine Grid Heater Relay and bracket.
TRACK AND DROP ARM RETAINING BOLTS MAY BE INCORRECTLY TIGHTENED
The retaining bolts of the drop arm and track arms may not have been tightened to the correct torque. With the possibility that the bolts may become loose.
Recalled vehicles will have the subject bolts tightened to the correct torque.
TRACK AND DROP ARM RETAINING BOLTS MAY BE INCORRECTLY TIGHTENED
The retaining bolts of the drop arm and track arms may not have been tightened to the correct torque. With the possibility that the bolts may become loose.
Recalled vehicles will have the subject bolts tightened to the correct torque.
POSSIBILITY OF WATER INGRESS INTO ADR BATTERY RELAY
The possibility exists that water may ingress the ADR battery main relay. This may cause corrosion and the engine to stall.
Recalled vehicles will be fitted with a new battery connecting lead.
EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM MAY BECOME INOPERATIVE
There is a possibility that the airlines have been connected incorrectly which may lead to the emergency braking system becoming inoperative.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the airline position of the airline connections. If the connections are incorrect they will be connected to the correct positions.
FOOTVALVE SECURING BOLT MAY BE MISSING/NOT TIGHTENED CORRECTLY
The possibility exists that a footvalve securing bolt is missing or has been incorrectly tightened which can lead to pedal operation being hindered thus affecting braking.
Recall likely to be affected vehicles and check that all the footvalve securing bolts are in place. If this is not the case a replacement bolt will be fitted. In any event the bolts will be checked for the correct torque.
POSSIBILITY THAT THE CAB TILTING CYLINDER BRACKET MAY DEFORM
The possibility exists that the bracket which carries the cab tilt cylinder may deform. This can lead to unforeseen dropping of the cab when in the tilted position.
Recalled vehicles will have the relevant bracket inspected and repaired/modified as dictated by the Iveco Market Help Desk. In all cases the lift mechanism hydraulic pressure will be reduced from 370 to 310 bar.
POSSIBILITY THAT CONTAMINATED AIR CAN BE DRAWN INTO INTAKE SYSTEM
There is a possibility that contaminated air maybe drawn into the engine air intake system (eg Cigarette ends)
Recall affected vehicles and fit a protective grille over the air intake pipe
POSSIBILITY THAT CONTAMINATED AIR CAN BE DRAWN INTO INTAKE SYSTEM
There is a possibility that contaminated air maybe drawn into the engine air intake system (eg Cigarette ends)
Recall affected vehicles and fit a protective grille over the air intake pipe
STEERING CYLINDER CLAMP BOLTS WILL NOT ACHIEVE CORRECT TORQUE
It is not possible to obtain the correct torque on the steering ram and cylinder ball joint clamp bolts. Therefore after a certain time it might be possible for the ball joint to become loose on its threads.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected. Replace the nuts and bolts that clamp the ball joints to the ram and cylinder and tighten them to the correct torque.
POSSIBILITY THAT CONTACTS IN THE CAD LOOM WILL OXIDIZE AND OVERHEAT THE CONNECTORS
Possibility that contacts within the CAD loom may oxidize and cause overheating of the connectors
Recall likely to be affected vehicles check the connectors and reposition them within the wiring loom.
POSSIBLE SLACKENING OF TOWING HOOK CROSS MEMBER RETAINING NUTS
There is a possibility of slackening of the towing hook cross member retaining nuts
Recall affected vehicles and replace the cross beam retaining bolts & nuts and the towing hook securing nuts.
POSITIVE ALTERNATOR CABLE MAY RUB ON CHASSIS SIDE CROSS MEMBER.
There is a possibility that the positive alternator cable may rub/chaff on chassis side member
Recall affected vehicles replace bracket and clamps and adjust positive cable routing on chassis.
