POSSIBLE INSECURITY OF STEERING ROD
The steering rod may not be sufficiently torqued to either the Pitman arm or the steering arm on the stub axle.
Affected vehicles are being recalled for checking and where required retorqueing of both connections on the steering arm.
VEHICLE MAY MOVE FORWARD WHEN REVERSE GEAR ENGAGED
There is a possibility that the vehicle concerned has been delivered with a defect in the software program which could result in the vehicle moving forward when engaging reverse gear.
Recall the affected vehicle and reprogramme software. At the same time further upgrades will be carried out to the accelerator pedal.
SIDE IMPACT PROTECTION SYSTEM CONCERN
Transposed wiring in the side impact protection system (SIPS) may result in deployment of the air bag opposite to the side of an impact.
Check the electrical wiring connections of the SIPS installation and correct any which are found to be transposed.
POSSIBLE INSECURITY OF UPPER STEERING ARM
The screws securing the upper steering arm may have been overtightened damaging the threads of the screws and the threads in the steering arm knuckle. In the worst case situation a loss of steering control could result.
Remove the screws from the steering arm knuckle and examine the threads on both components for damage. Fit new bolts in all cases and new steering arms when the threads in the knuckle are found to be damaged.
