FORK AXLE CARRIER WITH EXCESSIVE PLAY OF WHEEL CLAMPING SCREW
Due to a production error there may be excessive play in the axial clamping screw on the forks. This could lead to a loss of control. THE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS NOT TO RIDE THE MACHINE UNTIL THE RECALL IS COMPLETED.
On affected machines check the threaded holes in the axle carriers with a special tool. If the nonconformity is present the fork leg with a defective axle carrier will be replaced.

CLUTCH PRESSURE PLATE MAY FRACTURE
Affected vehicles fitted with a 1.0 1.5 or 1.6 Ecoboost engine and 6-speed manual transmission could suffer clutch pressure plate fracture. This results in clutch smell reduced vehicle speed and performance. In the unlikely event of clutch pressure plate fracture a noise (thud / bang) could be heard from the vicinity of the transmission in extreme cases resulting in clutch / transmission fragments being released and striking under hood components creating a risk of smoke and fire from the under hood area.
To prevent the repeated heating /cooling events a new calibration has been developed for vehicles fitted with Engine Stop Start feature. The software with the additional feature sets the Instrument panel �Wrench light� and de-rates the engine performance if prolonged clutch slip is detected. The software feature includes a drive cycle strategy for latching the wrench light and engine performance de-rate if the customer should experience repeated clutch slip events. For vehicles that do not have Engine Stop Start feature an alternative clutch kit has been released.
SEAT BELT BUCKLE MAY SEPARATE FROM SEAT FRAME
A certain number of Insignia A - Model Year 17 the front seat belt buckles may not be produced according specification. In a worst case the seat belt buckles may separate from the seat frame in the event of an accident.
Vauxhall Authorised Repairers are instructed to check and if necessary replace the seat belt buckles on all affected vehicles.

OIL LEAKAGE ON TURBOCHARGER
The oil inlet nozzle on the turbocharger that is screwed on to the bearing housing is sealed with a copper seal. An adhesive that disintegrates when heated was applied in error. This may allow oil to leak onto the turbo housing.
On affected vehicles correctly reseal the connection.
FRONT BRAKE HOSES INCORRECTLY INSTALLED
On a certain number of Astra K - Model Year 2016-2017 (Only converted UK Police vehicles are affected) the front brake hoses might be incorrectly installed. This can lead to contact with the drive shaft boots finally resulting in failure/leakage.
Vauxhall authorised repairers or Police Workshops are asked to reroute the brake hoses and to inspect the brake hose installation if necessary replace any damaged parts to guarantee accurate functionality of the brakes.
CORROSION/ POOR ADHESION POTENTIALLY CAUSING THE FRONT SPOILER BRACKETS TO COME LOOSE
The front spoiler brackets may become loose.
Secure brackets with additional screws.
THROTTLE MAY BE SUSEPTIBLE TO JAM OPEN
Throttle may jam open
Replace the throttle assembly yoke regulator and battery
