CRACKS MAY APPEAR IN THE BYPASS PIPE IN THE RECIRCULATING GAS COOLING UNIT
Cracks may occur in the pipe connection of the Exhaust Gas Recirculation device�s cooler.
Replace EGR cooler on affected vehicles.
REAR AXLE HUB BEARING ASSEMBLY BOLTS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN TIGHTENED SUFFICIENTLY
Rear axle bearing bolts may not have been tightened sufficiently during the manufacturing process.
Inspect and replace the involved parts if necessary.
ENGINE WIRE HARNESS CONNECTED TO HYBRID VEHICLE POWER CONTROL UNIT COULD CONTACT COVER
Due to assembly variation a portion of the engine wire harness could contact the cover.Should the insulation wear and the core wires become exposed there is an increased risk of a vehicle fire.
Inspect the engine wire harness and repair or replace it if necessary.

Incorrect engine oil software
Subject vehicles are equipped with incorrect engine oil software leading to the oil temperature not being detected over a certain threshold. This could lead to the oil pan deformimg due to high engine oil temperatures which in turn could lead to oil loss onto the road surface.
The remedy involves reprogramming the engine ECU which will give the driver a timely warning regarding possible high oil temperature.
Oil plug incorrectly tightened
There is a possibility that an oil plug located on the side of the engine may not be properly tightened. An engine oil leak could occur that could lead to a certain amount of oil hitting the ground.
The remedy involves tightening the engine oil plug to the correct torque.
REPLACEMENT AIRBAG INFLATOR INSTALLED IN AN INCORRECT ORIENTATION
Affected vehicles received a recall remedy in which the replacement inflator may have been installed in an incorrect orientation.This may prevent the front passenger air bag from inflating as intended during deployment as designed.
Affected vehicles will have the inflator checked and corrected if it is necessary.
REPLACEMENT AIRBAG INFLATOR INSTALLED IN AN INCORRECT ORIENTATION
Affected vehicles received a recall remedy in which the replacement inflator may have been installed in an incorrect orientation.This may prevent the front passenger air bag from inflating as intended during deployment as designed.
Affected vehicles will have the inflator checked and corrected if it is necessary.
ENGINE COMPONENT MAY NOT BE TO SPECIFICATION
An engine component may not be to specification which could result in loss of engine performance. This may lead to the engine stalling and potentially causing an engine failure. In very unlikely circumstances the vehicle speed may increase without warning but will stop on its own after a few seconds.
On affected vehicles carry out a functional diagnostic check of the engine. If necessary replace the engine.
SKID CONTROL ECU MAY MALFUNCTION
The Skid Control ECU may incorrectly interpret signals and may malfunction. This may affect the operation of the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) although an EPB warning lamp will illuminate and a warning message will display.
On affected vehicle reprogramme the skid control ECU to correct this.
POSSIBILITY OF A FUEL LEAK
In certain specific conditions fuel may leak from the low pressure line due to a compatibility issue between the fuel filter and fuel line connector.
On affected vehicles replace the fuel line connector and fit an improved filter.
BOLTS ON THE EXHAUST SIDE OF THE TURBOCHARGER ASSEMBLY MAY BE INCORRECTLY TIGHTENED
Affected vehicles have a 2.0 litre turbocharged diesel engine. There is a possibility that the bolts on the exhaust-side of the turbocharger assembly may not have been correctly tightened during manufacture.
On affected vehicles check bolts. Where necessary replace the turbocharger.
BOLTS ON THE EXHAUST SIDE OF THE TURBOCHARGER ASSEMBLY MAY BE INCORRECTLY TIGHTENED
Affected vehicles have a 2.0 litre turbocharged diesel engine. There is a possibility that the bolts on the exhaust-side of the turbocharger assembly may not have been correctly tightened during manufacture.
On affected vehicles check bolts. Where necessary replace the turbocharger.
FUEL MAY LEAK
There is a possibility that the wall thickness of the fuel tank may be thinner than specification due to improper tank moulding at the supplier. This may allow fuel to leak which could ignite if an ignition source is present..
On affected vehicles inspect walls of tank and replace where necessary
INVERTOR CAPACITOR MAY NOT BE SECURE
The hybrid system of the subject vehicles includes an inverter assembly which contains a capacitor that may not have been properly bolted to the inverter housing. In this condition the terminal of the capacitor could be damaged by vibration during normal vehicle operation.
On affected vehicles replace the invertor assembly
