Inspect the upper steering column bolt fitment and replace where necessary.
THE PROPELLANT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME
The front passenger airbag inflator could rupture in the event the airbag is deployed.
Replace the front passenger air bag on affected vehicles.
LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSISTANCE
Potential failure of steering gear motor bolts when exposed to long term high corrosive environment. This can lead to loss of power assistance to the steering which would result in additional effort from the driver to steer the vehicle.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the aluminium bolts with stainless steel bolts. Where necessary the steering rack will be replaced.
PASSENGER AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY AS INTENDED
The propellant in the front passenger airbag inflator might degrade over time which could cause the inflator body torture in the event the airbag is deployed. This could cause injury to occupants.
On affected vehicles replace the passenger airbag.
SEAT MAY NOT CORRECTLY LATCH
The left-side fold-flat second row seat may have a misadjusted cable that controls the recliner mechanisms. Incorrect adjustment may prevent one of the recliners from fully latching.

SEATBELT MAY NOT PERFORM CORRECTLY
The driver and/or front passenger seatbelt could be improperly connected to the outboard lap pretensioner. The connection is secured by means of a bolt that fastens the steel anchor plate on the end of the seat belt to a steel anchor plate on the end of the pretensioner cable. If a collision occurs and the aforementioned condition exists there is an elevated risk of additional injury to the occupant of the seat.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected for inspection of the seatbelt connection to the pretensioner and the anchor plates. If the condition is evident the seatbelt/s will be reassembled to ensure proper connection.
SHORT CIRCUIT MAY OCCUR
Although highly unlikely it is possible that the wiring harness for the 12V auxiliary battery could as a result of incorrect routing chaff on the carbon fibre armature of the vehicle. If this condition exists and is not addressed it could in time result in a short circuit and electrical arching which could cause a fire. The high voltage main battery pack and associated wiring is not affected in any way and the issue poses no threat to the electrical system that powers the vehicle.
Recall all affected vehicles to check the wiring and install a protective sleeve as an additional precautionary measure.
