    ENGINE MAY FAIL

    Defect

    The camshaft could break and damage the engine due to it not being manufactured to the correct specification. If the condition occurs it will lead to a sudden loss of drive thereby increasing the risk of a collision.

    Remedy

    Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the intake camshaft.
