THE PLUG-IN CONTACT OF THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE ON THE FRONT POWER DISTRIBUTION BOX CAN BECOME DAMAGED BY VEHICLE VIBRATIONS AND FRICTIONAL CORROSION
The plug-in contact of the positive battery cable on the front power distribution box can become damaged by vehicle vibrations and frictional corrosion.
Replace the plug-in contact on the positive battery cable by installing a repair cable.
PLUG IN CONTACT CABLE MAY MALFUNCTION
The positive battery cable to the front distribution box behind the glove box can become damaged by vibrations and frictional corrosion. This may cause a loss of electrical connection to the distributions box. Symptoms include being unable to gain entry or start the car but the most common are a flickering instrument panel or uneven engine performance. However if the electrical connection is completely lost this will also affect the operation of the vehicles lighting systems; e.g. sidelights or hazard warning lamps.
On affected vehicles carry out a suitable repair to the battery cable positive cable.

GEARBOX MAY FAIL TO HOLD IN PARK POSITION WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY
The gearbox may not hold the vehicle in the park position when the vehicle is stationary (Position �P�). The vehicle may roll if the handbrake is not applied.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the gearbox parking pin.
AIRBAG CONTROL UNIT CONNECTION MAY NOT BE MANUFACTURED TO SPECIFICATION
The connector pins of the occupant classification system to the airbag control unit might have been manufactured outside specification. After a period of time this may cause decativation of the passnger airbag.
On affected vehicles replace the connector pins of the occupant classification system.

On affected vehicles replace the connector pins of the occupant classification system.
PROPELLANT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR MAY BE DETIORATED
The propellant in the passengers front airbag inflator may deteriorate due to high temperature and humid conditions over a longer period in use. As a result the inflator body may rupture during airbag deployment and may injure occupants.
On affected vehicles replace the passenger airbag inflator.
DOOR LATCHING MECHANISM MAY MALFUNCTION IN HOT TEMPERATURES
The locking mechanism in the door latch assembly may not operate properly in high temperatures. As a result the door may not latch correctly and may unintentionally open whilst driving. This may affect one or more doors depending on vehicle identification number.
Modified assemblies are available and the remedy is to replace door latch mechanisms as identified by the manufacturer.
WATER INGRESS MAY CAUSE WINDSCREEN WIPERS TO FAIL
Due to inappropriate waterproofing water may be drawn into the front wiper motor and/or may cause corrosion of the wiper link ball joint. This may over time cause the wipers to fail.
On affected vehicles replace the wiper motor which has a modified breather and wiper link ball joint.
DOOR LATCHING MECHANISM MAY MALFUNCTION IN HOT TEMPERATURES
The locking mechanism in the door latch assembly may not operate properly in high temperatures. As a result the door may not latch correctly and may unintentionally open whilst driving. This may affect one or more doors depending on vehicle identification number.
Modified assemblies are available and the remedy is to replace door latch mechanisms as identified by the manufacturer.
FRONT SEAT BELT MAY JAM
The front seat belt webbing may jam in the belt guide loop. This may affect the operation of the belt.
On affected vehicles remove the spacer ring and install an additional slide element for the seat belt guide to prevent jamming.
FRONT SEAT BELT MAY JAM
The front seat belt webbing may jam in the belt guide loop. This may affect the operation of the belt. As a result the risk of injury may possibly be increased in the event of a collision.
On affected vehicles remove the spacer ring and install an additional slide element for the seat belt guide to prevent jamming.
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM MAY FAIL TO DISPLAY FAILURE OF THE POWER STEERING ASSIST PUMP
on a certain number of Movano B - Model Year 17 and 18 the alerts on failures from power steering assist pump might not be indicated in the instrument cluster due to incorrect calibration file in Instrument Cluster. OBD System does not work to specification because a potential failure on the power steering assist pump might not be indicated in the instrument cluster
Apply the new calibration file for Instrument Cluster
FRONT SEAT SIDE AIRBAG BRACKET MAY BE INSECURE
The front seat side airbag bracket may not be secured and may not work correctly in the event of an accident. The airbag may fail to deploy in an accident.
On affected vehicles check and secure bracket if required.
FUEL MAY LEAK
on a certain number of Chevrolet Captiva (RHD) with 2.0L Diesel Engine Model Year 2007 - 2010 there is a potential for a fuel leak caused by a partial or complete disconnection of a fuel feed hose connector. This fuel leak leads to engine stalling and in a worst case it might potentially result in an engine bay fire. This fuel leak leads to engine stalling and in a worst case it might potentially result in an engine bay fire. No reported cases of fires.
Check and correct the fuel feed hose routing replace the fuel feed hose quick connector retainer and apply a warning sticker to advice that the retainer is a single-use part
THE BLOWER-REGULATOR WIRING COULD BE DAMAGED AND COULD LEAD TO PARTIAL CONTACT OF INDIVIDUAL WIRE STRANDS
The blower-regulator wiring could be damaged and could lead to partial contact of individual wire strands.
The blower-regulator wiring harness will be inspected and a new part will be installed. Additional components will be replaced if necessary as determined at the time of repair.

ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM MAY MALFUNCTION
on a certain number of Movano B - Model Year 16 and 17 with LWK or L0D engine there are some problems of the OBD (on Board Diagnostic) which should be indicated but do not trigger the MIL (Malfunction Indication Lamp). occurs Possible faults which should be indicated but do not trigger the MIL (Malfunction Indication Lamp). Under worst-case conditions the OBD would recognize a failure on Exhaust System components (e.g. components of the Exhaust Gas Recirculation EGR) but would not display the failure with a malfunction indicator lamp.

FRONT DOOR HANDLES MAY NOT BE INSTALLED CORRECTLY
Driver and front passenger door exterior handles may not have been installed correctly.
On affected vehicles check installation of the door handles and if necessary replace and correctly install.
SOME ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS MAY MALFUNCTION DUE TO WATER INFILTRATION
On some Alfa Romeo Stelvio vehicles due to a potential nonconformity some electric-electronic components may malfunction as a result of water infiltrations and their performance may be compromised. The vehicle may not function as the driver expects it to during use including unintended activation and opening of the rear liftgate door at vehicle speeds up to 3.1 MPH. An unintended activation and opening of the rear liftgate door may result in a loss of unrestrained cargo. Lost cargo may create a road hazard and could cause a following vehicle to crash without prior warning.
Sealing and/or application of sealants in specific places will ensure full parts conformity is restored.
HEAD RESTRAINT MAY BE INSECURE
On a limited production period a burr may have developed on the locking bar of the head restraint guide.
On affected vehicles the left head restraint guide on both front seats must be replaced.
STEERING COMPONENTS MAY BE INSUFFICIENTLY GROUNDED
It has been determined that the steering airbag electrical components are insufficiently grounded. Failure of the steering column module clock spring could result in an inadvertent deployment of the driver airbag which may cause risk of injury to the driver and an increased risk of a potential collision.
On affected vehicles the manufacturer will fit a contact bridge to the outer race of the steering column top bearing which will provide correct grounding.
