THE FLOATING PISTON IN THE FRONT BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER MAY CRACK
Because of a manufacturing fault the floating piston in the front brake master cylinder may crack under high stress conditions typical of track use frequent ABS interventions or if a machine is dropped. This could reduce the efficiency of the front brake.
On affected machines replace the floating piston in the front brake master cylinder with a modified version.

PARKING BRAKE MAY NOT FUNCTION AS INTENDED
This affects vehicles with double drive axles and a trailing axle. Under very specific axle load conditions including lowered chassis and slippery or loose terrain traction at both drive axles may be compromised and the vehicle may move.
On affected vehicles fit spring brake actuators to the trailing axle.
THE WHEELCHAIR RAMP DOES NOT LOCK CORRECTLY
The wheelchair ramp on affected vehicles may not lock correctly
Update the control unit software.
POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE MAY HAVE BEEN INCORRECTLY FITTED

A-PILLAR PASSENGER PROTECTION TRIMS MAY PEEL OFF IN SUB-ZERO TEMPERATURES
A-pillar trims are fitted to the vehicle affected with a fleece on their inner side which may peel off during temperatures below zero. This fleece should prevent the broken off parts of the A-pillar trim from entering the vehicles interior during a head airbag activation. If the fleece has peeled off the broken parts of the trim could penetrate into the interior potentially injuring the occupants.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit new front A-pillar trims.
FRAME MAY CRACK
Cracks may appear on the side tubes between the engine mounting point and the lower cradle which could cause the frame to fail.
On affected machines inspect the frame for signs of damage. Fit t reinforcement plates and where cracks are found replace the frame. For other damage in the designated area the manufacturer should be contacted for further advice.
SEATBELT PRETENSIONER MAY NOT OPERATE
Due to a deviation in the suppliers production process a specific squib batch may not comply with specifications In the event of an accident during which the left or right hand seat belt tensioner in the rear is activated with out squib ignition the belt may not fully restrain the occupant.
On affected vehicles replace the left and right hand rear seat belts with a correct version.
THE ENGINE CYLINDER HEAD MAY CRACK
Localized overheating of the engine cylinder head may cause the cylinder head to crack.This may cause a pressurized oil leak which in extreme circumstances could result in a fire in the engine compartment.
On affected vehicles Inspect engine and cooling system. Replace affected components and fit a Coolant Level Sensor along with associated software to provide and audible and visual warning to the driver.
