POSSIBLE SEEPAGE ON THE DIESEL FUEL RETURN PIPE
There is a risk of a manufacturing non conformity on the fuel injection diesel return pipe. This may lead to the possibility of fuel seepage.
As a preventive measure likely to be affected vehicles will have the pipe replaced additionally the pipe will be fitted with protective sleeves.

HANDBRAKE MECHANISM MAY NOT BE TO SPECIFICATION
There is a possibility that the handbrake mechanism is not to the correct specification and as a result there is a possibility that under certain conditions the vehicle could roll away.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and inspect and test the handbrake mechanism. If necessary replace the brake pads and re-adjust the handbrake cable as specified.
POSSIBILITY THAT THE STARTER MOTOR WIRING LOOM IS INCORRECTLY POSITIONED
The possibility exists that the starter motor wiring loom has been positioned incorrectly. In consequence there is a risk that this could cause a short circuit.
Recall likely to be affected vehicles and correctly fit the wiring loom.
IMPROVE THE PROTECTION OF FRONT BRAKE HOSES
It has become necessary to check the front brake hoses and improve their protection. In extreme cases wear on the hose caused by chafing against the wheel arch could cause a brake fluid leak. The presence of which would initially illuminate the red warning lamp on the dashboard.
Recall likely to be affected vehicles and check the condition of the front brake hoses. If found to suffering a chafe situation the hoses will be changed. If not the hoses will be checked for orientation and fitted with an additional protective device.
CONCERN THAT THE LOWER AXLE SWIVEL JOINT WAS NOT TIGHTENED CORRECTLY
There is a risk that the lower swivel joint on the front suspension has not been sufficiently tightened.
Check the mounting and tightness of the joint if found out of specification replace the joint.
FAILURE OF THE THROTTLE STOP COULD LEAD TO A REDUCTION IN BRAKING ASSISTANCE
The original engine software may cause erratic operation of the motorised throttle body. This could in rare extreme cases cause the throttle stop to break. This will cause the engine to revert to limp home mode which possible may cause a reduction in braking assistance.
Install updated software in the engine ECU.

Install updated software in the engine ECU.
THE VEHICLE MAY NOT BE CORRECTLY FITTED WITH A REAR SEAT ANCHORAGE POINT STRENGTHENER
It is a possibility that vehicles may not be correctly fitted with a rear seat anchorage point strengthener. If the strengthener is not fitted the vehicle will not comply with the defined retention criteria in the case of an accident.
Recalled vehicles will be inspected for the presence of the seat anchorage strengthener. In cases where it is not in place the vehicle will be returned to specification.
WELD POINTS ON REAR SIDE CHASSIS MEMBERS MAY HAVE NOT BEEN MADE CORRECTLY
The possibility exists that the weld points on the chassis rear side members may not have been made correctly. With the result that in the case of an impact the vehicle would not comply with the energy absorption criteria.
Likely to be affected vehicles will be recalled for checking of the subject welds. If it is found that the welds are not to specification Product Service should be contacted.
POSSIBILITY OF ERRATIC OPERATION OF THE MOTORIZED THROTTLE BODY
The software may cause erratic operation of the motorized throttle which may result in breakage of the throttle stop. This can result in the engine reverting to limp home mode with a possible reduction in braking assistance.
Subject vehicles will be recalled and the condition eradicated by carrying out an ECU download.
POSSIBILITY THAT THE REAR SPOILER MAY DETACH
The spoiler mounting on the rear tailgate may in certain cases have some weak points and cause some noise.This may even lead to the loss of the spoiler
Recall affected vehicles and replace the 4 spoiler fixing bolts and fit two safety straps
THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL MAY NOT RETURN CORRECTLY
The accelerator pedal may not return correctly.
Recall likely to be affected vehicles and replace the accelerator pedal end stop.
POSSIBILITY THAT EGR SUPPORT BRACKET MAY BREAK
There is a possibility that the EGR support bracket may break and cause a short circuit which may stop the engine.
Recall affected vehicles and replace EGR bracket.
RISK OF FIRE - HEATER BLOWER MODULE
There is a possibility of defective components in the heater blower which could cause a short circuit and loss of ventilation of the passenger compartment and in an extreme condition could set fire to the wiring harness.
Recall affected vehicles and replace heater blower module
HANDBRAKE EFFICIENCY MAY BE REDUCED.
The handbrake adjustment system may be unreliable which will reduce its efficiency under certain conditions.
Check adjust and/or replace the brake shoe mechanisms.
PROTECTION OF THE BATTERY SUPPLY CIRCUIT.
It is necessary to protect the battery supply circuit to prevent any possible risk of an electrical short circuit
Fit a replacement battery negative cable fitted with a maxi fuse also fit protective felt to the aluminium section of the air conditioning pipes to insulate them from the battery positive cable.
POSSIBLE DEFORMATION OF REAR SUSPENSION
Possible non-conformity of the rear suspension triangles could in rare cases of stress lead to their deformation.
Fit new right and left side lower suspension triangles.
SERVICE BRAKE LINKAGE MAY BECOME DISCONNECTED
It is necessary to exchange the two clevis pins on the brake pedal system to avoid any loss of braking. Peugeot have experienced a limited number of incidents where one of the pins has not been locked properly during fitting.
Recall the potentially affected vehicles and replace the two clevis pins on the brake pedal system.
WATER INGRESS INTO THE AIRBAG ECU
There is a possibility that water may ingress into the airbag electronic control unit (ECU) compartment. This may cause premature deployment of the airbag.
Seal the airbag ECU compartment.
ELECTRICAL SIGNAL COULD NEUTRALISE THE SLIDING DOOR SAFETY LOCK
There is a possibility that the electric sliding doors may open whilst the vehicle is in motion.
Fit a replacement electronic control unit to the door.
POSSIBLE INCORRECT WIRING OF SIDE AIR BAGS AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONERS
There is a possibility that the connections for the side airbags and seat belt pre-tensioners may have been inverted on the connectors for the airbag ECU. In the case of an impact there is a risk that the incorrect side airbag could be triggered.
Check and if required change over the wires concerned in the airbag connector.
POSSIBILITY OF CUTS IN TYRES.
Due to an incident during the vehicle manufacturing process there may be cuts in the side wall or tread of one or both of the tyres on the right hand side of the vehicle.
Examine the tyres fitted to the vehicle and replace any that are found to be cut.
POSSIBLE CHAFING OF WIRING LOOM
There is a possibility that the wiring loom may be damaged as a result of contact being made between components in the heater blower and gear lever. This may result in a short circuit and failure of the heater.
Recall affected vehicles and fit a protector and an additional grooved sleeve.
