SEAT BELT FIXING MAY LOOSEN
On the vehicles concerned the lower fixing for the left hand front seat belt may be of an incorrect specification. This may lead to the fixing becoming loose.
Recalled vehicles will have the fixing checked and corrected as necessary.
REAR AXLE FIXING BOLTS MAY BECOME LOOSE
The quality of the welding at the suspension mounting reinforcement plates may not be to specification.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the welding. Where necessary take corrective action to ensure that the reinforcement plate welding operation has been correctly completed.
ENGINE MAY STALL
It is possible that the engine may stall when lifting your foot off of the accelerator immediately after high speed usage of the vehicle.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to download a new piece of software to the engine ECU.

SEAT BELT BRACING ACTION MAY BE AFFECTED
The seat belt locking action may not be as fast as it is designed to be.
Recall the vehicles that may be affected to check the date of manufacture of the seat belts and where necessary replace the seat belts.

BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE AFFECTED
Braking assistance could be adversely by freezing of moisture that may accumulate in the vacuum circuit.
Recall the vehicles that may be affected and fit a separate air vent complete with filter to each electro valve fitted to the vacuum circuit.

FUEL MAY LEAK
Due to a potential fault in the engine management system an internal engine fuel leak via the injectors may occur following switching off. This would result in the engine failing to restart due to excess fuel being present in the inlet manifold or cylinders.
To address the issue recalled vehicles will receive an engine management download.

AIRBAG MAY DEPLOY INADVERTENTLY
The incorrect fixing of the left hand curtain airbag can lead to incorrect deployment in the case of a left hand side impact or frontal impact with a high degree of angular bias to the left.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and re-fix the airbag correctly.
AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY AS DESIGNED
Incorrect manufacture of the rear bench seat bolsters could in the case of an impact hinder the deployment of the rear lateral airbags.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit modified seat bolsters.
BRAKES MAY FAIL
It is necessary to check the fitting of the pedal box transfer bar levers on (RHD only). In rare cases where the return bar lever is faulty the braking efficiency could be affected.
Recalled vehicles will have the transfer bar checked and replaced if found to be faulty.

Recalled vehicles will have the transfer bar checked and replaced if found to be faulty.
CORROSION OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WHICH COULD CAUSE A SHORT CIRCUIT
It is necessary to check and reinforce the sealing of the electrical connections for the ABS system. As under certain conditions the repeated entry of salt water into this connection could cause short circuits which may lead to a fire within the engine compartment
Recalled vehicles will have numerous checks carried out and repairs completed dependent upon what is found.
STARTER MOTOR MAY OPERATE INADVERTENTLY
There is a possibility of untimely triggering of the starter motor which if the vehicle has been left in gear could result in the vehicle jerking forward when the starter motor engages.
Recall the likely to be affected vehicles and down load new software for the intelligent servo control unit.
BRAKE CIRCUIT MAY LEAK
Under certain circumstances a brake pipe may chafe on the turbo charger air intake securing clip. In extreme situations the wear caused could lead to leakage within a brake circuit and the illumination of the red brake warning light.
Recalled vehicles will be checked for the chafe condition and if necessary the turbo air intake securing clip will be relocated. The affected brake pipe will also be changed if it displays any sign of wear.
RISK OF FIRE IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT
It is necessary to reinforce the sealing of electrical connections for the steering system electro pump assembly. As under certain conditions the repeated entry of salt water into this connection could cause short circuits which may lead to a fire within the engine compartment.
Recalled vehicles will have numerous checks carried out and repairs completed dependent upon what is found.
FRONT SUSPENSION SPRING MAY BREAK
In countries where salt is used extensively on the roads the paint sub layer on certain springs produced over a specific manufacturing period shows very little resistance to corrosion. This can in exceptional circumstances cause a front suspension spring to break with the attendant risk that the spring could contact the tyre.
To prevent an occurrence of this type likely to be affected vehicles will be recalled at which time a suspension cup will be fitted on each front side of the vehicle to prevent a failed spring from making contact with the tyre.
AIRBAG SYSTEM MAY MALFUNCTION
Some cases have been found where inadequate drainage of water condensing from the air conditioning system has caused water to run under the carpet. This in turn may lead to the airbag warning light coming on or in extreme cases lead to airbag systems malfunctioning.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected for modification of the drainage tube and the anti return valve.
EXCESSIVE OSCILLATION OF THE THROTTLE VALVE
The original software may generate excessive oscillation of the motorised throttle valve which in extremely rare cases causes the failure of its throttle stop. This results in the engine operating in safety mode with a possible reduction in braking assistance.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the ECU and either perform a download or replace the ECU.
AIRBAG ECU IS NOT TO SPECIFICATION
The airbag Electronic Control Unit (ECU) is incorrect to specification this reduces the number of impact configurations taken into consideration when activating the airbags. So an airbag may not deploy in as many advantageous situations.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the airbag ECU.
