FRONT SEAT PASSENGER AIRBAG MAY ACTIVATE WHEN TURNED OFF
The airbag and seat belt pretensioner ECU system may be incorrectly programmed.
Affected vehicles will be recalled and airbag sensors replaced.
BRAKE FLUID MAY LEAK
Due to an improper washing process of a metal part within the brake master cylinder there is a possibility that the groove for installing the rubber seal ring which is located at the end of the master cylinder may be corroded. In this condition brake fluid may leak from the seal or a small amount of air may enter the master cylinder which could lead to an increase in vehicle stopping distance.
Vehicles that are likely to be affected will be checked and a quality assured part fitted if necessary.
PASSENGER FRONT AIR BAG CONCERN
The front passenger airbag inflator module check valve pin is missing in the affected vehicle. In the event of airbag activation the partition which separates the inflator and the bag may not be properly broken resulting in insufficient pressure to properly deploy the airbag. This could result in injury to the front seat passenger in the event of a frontal impact.
Replace the inflator module.
TWO GEARS MAY BE SELECTED AT THE SAME TIME
Transmission output shaft critical dimension may be shorter than the specification. In the worst case this could result in two gears being selected at the same time and cause the gearbox to lock up.
Check transmission serial number and replace any gearbox found to be within the affected range.
BRAKE PEDAL STROKE MAY INCREASE
Certain brake master cylinder reservoir cap air vents are blocked. If the vehicle is driven in this condition for long term a vacuum is created in the reservoir tank as brake pads wear. There is a possibility that this vacuum may cause the brake pedal stroke to increase.
Recall affected vehicles and replace reservoir cap if faulty.
REAR BRAKE AND HUB SECURITY CONCERN
It is possible for the bolts to be loose that join the rear brake and hub assembly to the rear axle carrier due to insufficient tightening. 1 or more of the 4 bolts could come loose causing an abnormal noise from the rear wheel axle area. In the event that all 4 bolts loosen completely separation of the rear brake and hub assembly from the rear axle carrier may occur which in the worst case could lead to a loss of vehicle control.
Recall affected vehicles and check the rear brake and hub securing bolts for correct tightness.
