WIRING MAY CHAFE ON BRAKE PIPE
As a result of engine movement a wiring harness may chafe on a steel brake pipe adjacent to the brake master cylinder. This could cause short circuiting and possible loss of braking efficiency should the brake fluid temperature rise as a result.
Recall the affected vehicles for the fitment of a modified clip to the wiring harness. Additionally the harness will be sheathed for additional protection in the area adjacent to the brake pipe.
ENGINE WIRING HARNESS MAY CHAFE ON POWER STEERING PUMP PULLEY
The engine wiring harness may chafe on the power steering pump pulley resulting in a possible fire hazard.
Recall the affected vehicles and secure the wiring harness with cable ties as per the manufacturers instructions. At the same time the wiring will be checked for damage and where this has occurred it will be rectified as required.

POSSIBLE TYRE FAILURE
Certain vehicles within the chassis range specified may have been fitted with examples of a batch of Dunlop tyres which are the subject of a recall. The tyres were affected by a contaminant during manufacture which could cause loss of adhesion between
Recall the affected vehicles for examination of the tyres. Where any tyres from the affected batch are found they will be replaced.
LACK OF WELD PENETRATION OF ROADWHEEL SEAM WELDS
The seam weld joining the wheel disc to the wheel rim may lack penetration resulting in failure of the weld and eventual detachment of the road wheel.
Recall the affected vehicles and replace the road wheels with quality assured examples.
