Showing 26–33 of 33 recalls.
POSSIBLE LOSS OF BRAKE POWER ASSISTANCE
Non air conditioned Megane and Scenics equipped with K4J or K4M engines with a pre-catalytic convertor fitted may have a hard brake pedal (lack of braking assistance). This is caused by the deterioration of the braking assistance pipe as it passes too close to the source of heat emitted by the pre-catalytic convertor.
Recall affected vehicles and replace and/or reroute the brake assistance (vacuum) pipe.
POTENTIAL FUEL LEAKS
There is a risk of the diesel return pipe rubbing against the alternator and there is a risk of leakage from the connections of the high pressure pipes to the injectors. It is possible that the high pressure pump supply pipe may wear against the acoustic protector.
Reposition or replace any chafing fuel pipes as appropriate. Check the union connections for correct tightness on the high pressure pipes to the injectors.
POSSIBLE ENGINE HESITATION.
Engine exhaust gas recirculation pipe may fail and cause the vehicle to hesitate when pulling away.
Recall affected vehicles and replace the exhaust gas recirculation pipe.
OVERHEATING OF IGNITION WIRING CONNECTORS
Quality inspections by the manufacturer have revealed the possibility of a faulty connection between the high tension leads and the ignition coil. The connector could overheat if not replaced.
Recall affected vehicles and replace the ignition harness and ignition coil.
POSSIBLE FUEL LEAKAGE
Fuel leakage from the fuel pipes and common rail may occur at high pressure.
Affected vehicles are being recalled for replacement of the fuel pipes and rail with quality assured components.
ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
The camshaft sensor may fail and cause the engine to cut out
Affected vehicles are being recalled for replacement of the camshaft sensor.
POSSIBILITY OF REDUCTION IN VACUUM SERVO ASSISTANCE
A specific batch of vacuum pumps may have a potential defect (blockage) which may cause a reduction in servo assistance.
Recall affected vehicles and replace vacuum pump.
POSSIBLE RESTRICTION IN HYDRAULIC BRAKING SYSTEM
There is a possibility of a restriction in a plastic double pipe union on the brake master cylinder. This could prevent or reduce the operation of the hydraulic braking circuit.
Affected vehicles are being recalled to have the plastic union examined for evidence of any restriction. If a restriction is found the plastic pipe union will be replaced with a quality assured version.
