RISK OF FIRE
The fuel pressure sensor gasket may degrade and allow fuel to leak into the engine compartment. In the presence of an ignition source the risk of fire is increased.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to repair the fuel pipe and replace the fuel pressure sensor gasket.

VEHICLE COULD SUDDENLY STOP
It is possible that due to variations in the build specification of the Intelligent Power Module (IPM) which includes the Insluted-Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBT's) the lead-based solder could be affected by abnormally higher operating temperatures. This could result in a degrading of the solder and eventually heat damage to the IGBT's. If this occurs then warning lights on the instrument panel will illuminate. However if the driver fails to heed these warnings or the main power supply fuse blows then the vehicle could stop without warning.
Recall all the affected vehicles and replace the IPM unit with a upgraded unit.
FRONT WIPER MAY BECOME INOPERATIVE
In the front wipers on subject left hand drive cars there is high friction at the tightening surface between the wiper arm nut and the wiper arm that could result in the nut being insufficiently tight. If the movement of the wiper arm is restricted by an external load such as a build up of heavy snow on the windshield the wiper motor torque may exceed the wiper arm slipping torque and one or both wipers could become inoperative. If this happens then visibility could be reduced which could increase the risk of a crash.

STEERING MAY BE AFFECTED
Due to a none conformance to specification the front crankshaft pulley inner and outer rubber mounted section may separate. If the separation occurs noise will become apparent the ignition warning lamp may illuminate and in the worst case the power steering drive belt may detach from the pulley which will result in the driver having to significantly increase their effort to steer the vehicle especially at low speed.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary replace the crankshaft pulley.

VEHICLE MAY LOOSE POWER
The Intelligent Power Module within the inverter system may fail. This will result in various warning lamps being illuminated. In most cases this will result in the vehicle entering the fail-safe mode resulting in limited power. In limited instances the fuse on the power supply circuit could blow resulting in the hybrid system stopping.
Replacement of the Intelligent Power Module (IPM) in the inverter assembly.
FUEL MAY LEAK
Due to insufficient tightening of the fuel pressure sensor connected to the engine fuel delivery pipe there is a possibility that over time the pressure sensor could loosen. If loosening occurs fuel could leak past the gasket used in the connection between the sensor and pipe and through the threaded portion of the sensor.
Check and retighten the fuel pressure sensor to the specified torque setting replacing the gasket if necessary.
ENGINE MAY STALL OR WILL NOT RESTART.
Due to the inflexibility of the material of the fuel pump wiring harness it is possible that as a result of internal movement of the fuel suction plate the connector terminal may fail. This could cause stalling of the vehicle or impossible to restart.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace the fuel pump wiring harness.
BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER MAY FAIL.
If the incorrect brake fluid is used in the brake system it is possible that the rear seal can become dry and curl in its recess due to the operation of the piston. This can result in a brake fluid leak which will when the fluid reaches a low level illuminate the brake fluid low warning light on the dash.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace the rear seal with an improved one.

ENGINE MAY FAIL
One or more engine cylinder valve springs may fail which will cause abnormal noise and rough engine performance. In the worst case it is possible for the engine to fail and stop suddenly while the vehicle is in motion.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the valve springs.

STEERING CONTROL ECU
The steering control ECU programming for the Variable Gear Ratio Steering system can cause the steering wheel to become off-centred by a maximum of up to 90 degrees under certain limited circumstances. If the driver has fully turned the steering wheel and then very quickly attempts to turn it back to the centre position the steering wheel may temporarily become off-centred.
