FUEL MAY LEAK
Under certain operating conditions resonance caused by fuel pressure could damage the pulsation damper in either of the high pressure fuel pumps. This damage can lead to abnormal noise/vibration and over time can cause the pump cover to develop a fatigue crack and fuel may leak.
On affected vehicles replace the high pressure fuel pumps with a nev version.
ELECTRICAL WIRING IN STEERING ASSEMBLY MAY BE INSUFFICIENTLY GROUNDED
The steering column clock spring may break. This will cause warning messages to illuminate in the instrument cluster but in extreme instances it may cause the driver's airbag to deploy.
Affected vehicles will be recalled to establish sufficient grounding of the steering components.

On affected vehicles replace the high pressure fuel pumps with a nev version.
FUEL RETURN LINE MAY LEAK
The rigid fuel return pipe may break at the fuel pump module due to engine vibrations. This will allow fuel to leak onto the road surface which will be a hazard to other road users. Fuel may also leak onto hot engine parts with a risk of fire.
On affected vehicles the rigid pipes are to be replaced with flexible fuel hoses which will cancel the effects of engine vibration.

AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CIRCUIT MAY OCCUR INSIDE THE ABS MODULE
Affected vehicles might experience and electrical short inside the ABS control module. On the affected vehicles moisture can enter the ABS module electrical system. Over time the moisture can cause a short circuit. This could cause the ABS module to fail and in extreme instances increase the risk of a thermal incident inside the engine bay.
On affected vehicles replace the Module printed circuit board with one which has additional sealing.

BRAKE LAMP SWITCH MAY MALFUNCTION
The brake lamp switch may malfunction which can be identified by a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination an audible chime and the brake lights will be illuminated. A malfunctioning brake switch could allow the vehicle to be shifted out of PARK without the brake pedal being depressed and could cause the rear brake lamps to be continuously illuminated. Being able to shift a vehicle out of PARK when the brake pedal is not depressed (and the ignition is in the RUN mode) and/or having the rear brake lamps continuously illuminated could cause a vehicle to crash without prior warning.
Replace the brake lamp switch.
TRAILER LIGHTING MAY FAIL
When towing a trailer the lights and/or the LED module mail fail due to incorrect contact between the towing harness and the trailer coupling.
Check affected vehicles for harness reference and replace where necessary.
DIPPED HEADLIGHT MAY FAIL TO LIGHT THE ROAD AHEAD TO SUFFICIENT LEVEL
Headlight (dipped beam) may not adjust correctly when switched on and therefore not light the road ahead sufficiently.
On affected vehicles make an adjustment of the headlight beam sensor.
DIPPED HEADLIGHT MAY FAIL TO LIGHT THE ROAD AHEAD TO SUFFICIENT LEVEL
Headlight (dipped beam) may not adjust correctly when switched on and therefore not light the road ahead sufficiently.
On affected vehicles make an adjustment of the headlight beam sensor.
SOFTWARE ERROR CAN CAUSE ENGINE TO FAIL
On the subject vehicles the engine protection logic does not work properly. When the engine speed reaches maximum with no engine load present � the software is unable to cut the engine. This could in extreme cases cause catastrophic engine failure. Immediate and catastrophic engine damage may result.
Re-program the engine protection software within the PCM.
HEAT SHIELD UPGRADE REQUIRED
Heat shield may not adequately shield exhaust gasses in the event of an exhaust silencer crack. This could cause nearby components to melt and pose a fire hazard.
Replace heat sheild on affected vehicles.
FUEL PUMP FLANGE MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME AND ALLOW FUEL TO LEAK
Fuel pump flange that when exposed to chemicals may degrade and leak causing fire risk.
Fit a fuel pump cover to shield the pump flange from potential contamination.
