Measure hardness of bearing bushing on longitudinal frame member for steering gear bearing
As part of our continuous quality monitoring we have found that the bearing bushing of the steering gear on the frame support may tear off on the specified Daimler Truck UNIMOG vehicles of the UHE and FGA models. The cause is the possible use of the wrong steel material during the manufacturing of the bearing bushing at our supplier. The use of the wrong steel material for the bearing bushing could lead to embrittlement of the weld seams and consequently tearing of the bearing bushing.
On the potentially affected vehicles the material quality of the bearing bushings must be checked and the component must be replaced in the event of abnormalities.
Aprilia RS-Tuono 457 E5+ Aprilia RS-Tuono 660 E5+ Left hand grip replacement
For affected machines the materials used in the production of the left-hand grip has been found to contain a chemical substance that does not comply with current health and safety regulations and could pose a risk of interference with the endocrine and reproductive systems.
Replacement of the left-hand grip.
2010 RAM 3500 Cab Driver airbag inflator
On affected vehicles the driver’s airbag inflator housing may rupture due to excessive internal pressure during normal airbag deployment events. An inflator rupture during airbag deployment events could result in metal fragments striking and potentially seriously injuring the vehicle occupant(s).
Replace the drivers airbag.
Inconsistent Tyre pressure monitoring system alert on certain Toyota Proace City
For certain vehicles the indirect tyre pressure monitoring within the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) software may result in the warning light not illuminating illuminating with a delay or triggering a false warning.
Update to the software calibration of the Electronic Stability Control unit (ESC).
Jeep Avenger. Emissions recall. Stop&Start not functioning software update. r Switch Harness Failure
On a number of Jeep Avenger ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicles equipped with start/stop function and manual transmission the Stop&Start function may not activate correctly. This will result in the engine continuing to run when Stop&Start should be active not shutting off as Stop&Start is intended. This is due to incorrect BCM (body control module) coding software and therefore CO2 levels may increase which does not match the CO2 values homologated and displayed in the CoC (Certificate of Conformity). This can lead to non-compliance with emissions regulations.
The repair is the Jeep retailer will update the BCM with the latest software to permanently rectify the issue. Jeep ref: 36C.
Cummins’ ISB4.5 210HP EuroVI Engine Valve Cover Cracking Safety Campaign
On vehicles with the affected engine the piston crown may develop a crack creating elevated crankcase pressure leading to a fracture of the valve cover. A fractured valve cover may allow oil to escape and in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
Install a crankcase pressure sensor and a pressure relief valve.
25SC4 Kuga - Do not charge high voltage battery to levels above 80%
Ford constantly monitors production processes and vehicles in service. While monitoring vehicles in operation we have become aware of a number of Kuga PHEV vehicles on which the high voltage battery may have some cells that could potentially develop an internal short circuit. In the event of a high voltage battery cell internal short circuit the customer will experience a Stop Safely Now message and warning icon in the instrument cluster. The customer may also experience a loss of motive power increasing the risk of an accident. The customer will continue to have 12-volt (V) accessories steering and braking control. The customer may also experience battery thermal venting potentially resulting in a vehicle fire increasing the risk of injury. Although customers may recall our previous communication about a similar issue under Field Service Action (FSA) 24S79 all customers will need to follow these new instructions regardless of whether that prior action was completed on their vehicles.
Ford engineers are working on the development of a remedy for this issue. While Ford has not issued instructions to stop driving until a remedy becomes available to mitigate the risk Ford will ask all affected customers to ONLY use the default Auto EV mode and avoid deep mud and snow modes until further notice. Ford will also send customers a letter instructing them not to charge their High-Voltage Battery above 80%. To make it easier for customers to limit the charge Ford will include with this letter a leaflet containing clear instructions on how to set the limit using the in-vehicle screen or via the Ford App. Once a remedy is available Ford will send customers a follow up letter instructing them to contact their dealer to schedule an appointment in order for the fix to be deployed on their vehicle.
295/80R22.5 152/148M Goodyear Kmax D Gen2
Affected tyres have a manufacturing variation that results in a thin liner condition. This nonconformity may potentially lead to air pressure loss which could cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of injury.
Affected tyres will be replaced.
Electric Compressor
For affected vehicles due to the programming of the HVAC control ECU software under certain conditions such as a specific failure mode of the electrical compressor the HVAC system will enter a failsafe mode that suspends the heater operation of the system and affects defroster function.
Reprogram the HVAC control ECU and inspect the compressor .
Transit Custom Double Cab In Van (DCiV): Second Row Bench Seat Manufacturing Defect
Affected vehicles may have been manufactured with a bench seat frame with a suspect weld due to a manufacturing defect. This could compromise the occupant restraint during a frontal crash potentially increasing the risk of injury.
Replace the bench seat frame.

Reprogram the HVAC control ECU and inspect the compressor .
Fuel Pipe Concern
On affected vehicles The brackets used to secure the fuel pipes to the engine may not be tightened sufficiently. If the engine is repeatedly operated at high speed such as during circuit driving vibrations may cause the fuel pipe to resonate potentially causing the pipe to leak. The fuel leakage may increase the risk of fire.
Replace the fuel pipe with a modified part.
Rear axle shock absorbers
On affected vehicles there is a possibility the rear axle shock absorbers could break.
Check and replace the rear shock absorbers if necessary.
EMISSIONS DO NOT MEET REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
EMISSIONS DO NOT MEET REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
A revised calibration will be provided to correct the NOx emissions to ensure they fall within legal limits.
POT Separation
On affected vehicles there is a risk the tailgate could close rapidly and cause injury due to a production issue with the Power Operated Tailgate (POT) drive units.
Replace both Power Operated Tailgate (POT) drive units.
Fiat Professional Doblo tyre label
On affected vehicles the tyre pressure label may show incorrect or missing information which does not meet regulatory requirements.
Replace the tyre pressure label.
Gear Shift Module Moisture Ingress
On Affected vehicles it is possible that moisture has entered the Gear Shift Module (GSM) during the assembly process. Under certain conditions there is a risk that this moisture could result in non-illumination of the Light Emitting Diode (LED) indicating the selected gear. Non-illumination of the LED gear indicator adjacent to the shifter would not conform to regulated requirements for automatic transmission control position indicator illumination.
Affected vehicles will have the Gear Shift Module replaced.
