Showing 51–58 of 58 recalls.
POSSIBLE LOSS OF BRAKING EFFICIENCY
On affected vehicles the servo vacuum hose may have been incorrectly routed and can chafe against the auxiliary drive pulley. This can lead to failure of the hose and a loss of brake servo assistance.
On affected vehicles check brake servo hose. If in good condition correctly reroute and secure hose. If hose is damaged replace hose and correctly route and secure.
RISK OF FIRE
An internal fault can create a short circuit within the fan control module which may lead to overheating of the insulation and ultimately fire within the engine bay. This may happen with the engine switched off and possibly when the vehicle is unattended..
Replace electric cooling fan assembly on affected vehicles
FIRE MAY OCCUR
For vehicles fitted with Dynamic Response System (DRS) it is possible that the positive battery cable could come in contact with the DRS fluid supply pipes. If this condition occurs the positive battery lead could chaff on the DRS pipe which will then lead to DRS pipes becoming positively charged. Should the charge find an earth then localised melting of components could occur due to heat generation. This could ultimately result in a vehicle fire.
Recall all affected vehicles to check and if necessary replace the positive battery cable then reroute the cable.
FUEL MAY LEAK
Fuel may leak from the fuel pump front bearing which could lead to poor performance smell of fuel fuel leakage at the rear of the engine fuel leak onto the ground and in the worse case fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the high pressure fuel pump drive belt belt tensioner the high pressure fuel lines and the fuel filter.
POSSIBLE REDUCTION IN BRAKING ASSISTANCE
It has been identified that some vehicles may experience a reduction in braking performance leading to increased stopping distance due to the possibility of oil entering the brake booster or the brake vacuum pump non-return valve sticking in the closed position after cold start.
All recalled vehicles will be fitted with a modified brake vacuum pipe along with a revised design non-return valve in the secondary port of the vacuum pump.
BRAKE HOSE ABS AND PAD SENSOR LEADS MAY CHAFE ON WHEEL BALANCE WEIGHTS
It is possible for the wheel balance weights to foul the left front brake hose and/or the ABS wheel speed sensor and/or the brake pad wear warning sensor.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit stick on wheel balance weights in place of the clamp on weights. A handbook supplement will also be produced stating the requirement for stick on weights.
BUCKLE MAY NOT BE RETAINED
Some vehicles may have been manufactured with a seat belt buckle mounting with a tensile strength below the required standard. If in the event of an accident where the rear left second row seat belt was being used the buckle may not be fully retained.
Recall the affected vehicles inspect and replace seat belt buckle where required.
THE PARKING FUNCTION OF THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION MAY NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY
Due to the presence of an out of specification component within the automatic gearbox parking brake interlock system. The parking function may not fully engage when the operating lever is moved to park despite all indicators showing that park has been achieved. If the parking brake is not applied the vehicle may roll away.
Recalled vehicles will have the out of specification component replaced with a quality assured item.
