REAR BENCH SEAT MAY NOT LOCK IN PLACE
Rear bench seat in third row may not lock in place and tip forward during harsh deceleration
Recall affected vehicles and modify routing of check strap.
POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO TYRE DURING FITTING
Internal tyre tread may have been damaged during fitting which could lead to a loss of pressure.
Recall affected vehicles and replace all five tyres.
INCORRECT WIRING OF LATERAL AIRBAGS 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.
Recall affected vehicles and reverse the wires concerned in the Air Bag Connector
ENGINE SUPPORT YOKE WELD MAY FAIL.
There is a possibility that the lower engine mounting point is weak. This may lead to significant engine vibration which in turn could result in the right hand drive shaft coming adrift.
Examine and replace the engine support yoke where found necessary.
WATER MAY ENTER COOLING FAN - RISK OF FIRE.
There is a possibility that water may collect within the casing of the cooling fan and in a limited number of cases an under-bonnet fire.
Fit a modified cooling fan assembly.
POSSIBILITY THAT VEHICLE COULD BE STARTED WITH GEAR SELECTOR IN ANY POSITION
The automatic gearbox control wiring loom may become pinched. This may make it possible to start the engine whilst the car is in gear.
Check whether the wiring loom is being pinched. Repair and reposition the loom where found necessary.
FRONT BRAKE PIPE MAY CHAFE ON ANTI ROLL BAR
The front left hand anti-roll bar linkage may contact and chafe the brake pipe when turning the wheels to full left lock.
Inspect and where necessary reposition the left front brake pipe.
POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO TYRES
There is a risk that the tyres may have been damaged during fitting onto the wheel rim at the factory.
Replace all five tyres.
INCORRECT SPECIFICATION BRAKE FLUID
It is possible that the brake fluid is not to the correct specification. this over a period of time could adversely affect the brake performance.
Replace the hydraulic fluid in the brake and clutch operating circuits.
FRONT SHOCK ABSORBER CONCERN
The front shock absorber lower yoke might not be to the correct specification. As a consequence the yoke may fracture and cause a deterioration in the vehicles road holding.
Recall affected vehicles and examine the front shock absorber lower support for cracks. Fit new shock absorbers where necessary.
HANDBRAKE CONCERN
There is a risk that the secondary handbrake cable could become detached from the rear brake mechanism causing the handbrake to become ineffective.
Check that the handbrake cable is correctly located in the rear brake mechanism. If it is not a new cable will be fitted.
IGNITION KEY MAY FOUL STEERING COLUMN COWLING
There is a possibility that the steering column cowling may move out of alignment causing the ignition switch to foul on the steering cowling and possibly stick in the start position.
Recall affected vehicles and check and where necessary replace the steering column clamp. The cowling unit is replaced on all vehicles recalled.
IGNITION SWITCH FIRE RISK
Key operation in the steering lock ignition switch may become stiff or could seize. An ignition switch seized in the start position could result in a starter motor burn out.
Replace the complete steering lock assembly.
FRONT RIGHT HAND LOWER SUSPENSION ARM MAY NOT BE TO SPECIFICATION
The front right hand lower suspension arm may not be to specification. As a consequence it may deform under certain impact loads.
Check the identification markings on the suspension arm and replace where necessary.
POSSIBLE REDUCTION IN BRAKING ASSISTANCE PLUS ENGINE OPERATING PROBLEMS.
In adverse wet weather conditions water may enter the engine management solenoid valve operating circuit. This could result in engine operating problems and a reduction in power assistance to the brake pedal if the water enters the brake vacuum circuit via the solenoid valves.
Recall affected vehicles to examine and if necessary replace the engine management solenoid valves with ones sealed against the ingress of water.
