Showing 51–57 of 57 recalls.
VEHICLE CONTROL MAY BE LOST
Front subframes on affected vehicles may show signs of damage to the left hand mounting point caused during the manufacturing process. Over time this may affect durability and cause the mounting to fail. This can affect security of components attached to the subframe and may affect control of the vehicle.
Prior to failure the driver should notice excessive noise from this area. As a safety measure affected vehicles should be checked and where necessary the subframe replaced.
TAILGATE MAY SHUT WITHOUT WARNING
Affected vehicles may have struts with a non compliant internal component. This may prevent the struts from maintaining the tailgate in the open position.
Non compliant struts are determined by using manufacturer test methods. If replacement is required both struts must be replaced.
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL MAY BE COMPROMISED
The front suspension wishbone mounting bolts might not have been manufactured to the correct specification potentially causing a risk of these parts breaking. Broken mounting bolts can be noticed by the driver through noises and poor directional control.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the front suspension wishbone mounting bolts.
FUEL MAY LEAK AND CREATE FIRE RISK
It has been established that the high pressure fuel rail pipes on the engine have not been torqued to the correct specification. This can result in poor sealing of the rail which can cause as fuel leak onto the engine. If the vaporised fuel comes into contact with a hot engine component there can be a risk of an engine bay fire.
Recall all the affected vehicles and retorque the high pressure fuel rail pipes.
ESP MAY NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY
Some vehicles from the affected production batch may have an issue with the effectiveness of the ESP system caused by non-conformity with the ABS/ESP hydraulic block. Consequences: This non-conformity will not affect the operation of the ABS system or the efficiency of the brakes. It may affect the operation of the ESP system on the rare occasions that it is activated; the correction of the drive delivered to the road wheel(s) when the ESP is activated may not be accurate to how it is manufactured to respond.
The hydraulic ABS/ESP block is to be replaced.
BRAKES MAY FAIL
During production it is possible the brake system may not have been bled correctly and some air may remain in the brake system. This could result in increased brake pedal travel and a possible reduction in braking efficiency.
Affected vehicles will be recalled to have the brake system bled.
BONNET CATCH MAY NOT LATCH CORRECTLY
On a small batch of vehicles the bonnet catch may not be correctly installed. If the bonnet is opened and then closed incorrectly it could result in the latch being insecure.
Recall affected vehicles to check the bonnet catch. Where necessary the bonnet catch will be replaced.
