1. BRAKES MAY FAIL. 2. RISK OF FIRE. 3. LOSS OF CONTROL
1. It is possible during production the brake pressure switch (brake light switch) may have been over torqued. This could result in a loss of brake fluid and subsequent reduction in braking performance which could cause a collision. 2. It is possible during production the fuel pipe may have been placed to close too the hood which resulted in insufficient clearance between the two. This could result in the abrasion of the fuel pipe which could leak. If this happens in the presence of an ignition source there will be a risk of fire. 3. It has been identified that the suspension swinging arm may not have been manufactured to the correct specification which affects its strength and could cause it to fail. If this occurs the directional control of the machine could be affected.
Recall all the affected machines to inspect check and if required replace the defective components.
POSSIBILITY OF FIRE
It has been identified that there is the possibility of a risk of an internal electrical short circuit in some cab interior lamps. In the worst situation this could result in a vehicle fire.
Recall all affected vehicles to fit additional fuses into the system.
REAR WHEEL MAY LOCK-UP
The drive shaft universal joint bearing may fail because it has not been manufactured to specification which can lead to drive force being lost and in worst case scenario if the universal joint breaks it may interfere with the swing arm and cause the rear wheel to lock-up. This may result in a reduction in stability control and increase the risk of a crash.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the drive shaft.
VEHICLE STABILITY MAY BE COMPROMISED
A bolt retaining the rear lower control arm to rear knuckle joint fixing may not have been tightened to correct specification. Failure of the bolt could affect control of the vehicle.
On affected vehicles replace the rear lower control arm to rear knuckle joint fixing
REAR BOLTS ON FRONT SEAT RUNNER MAY NOT BE TORQUED CORRECTLY
The bolts that hold the front seats to the floor may not be correctly tightened. This may cause the seat to become insecure and control of the vehicle to be compromised. Prior to failure there will be increased movement of the seat when getting in and out of the vehicle which should be noticeable to the driver.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary adjust the torque tightening of the rear bolts on the front seat runners.
BRAKES MAY FAIL
Contact may occur between the wiring harness and the ABS modulator. An electrical connection may be created via the brake line between the ABS modulator and the vehicle ground. For this to occur the wiring harness must be frayed and must be in contact with the ABS modulator and the brake line must be electrically conductive. A conductive brake line can overheat and ultimately melt which can result in failure of a brake system circuit.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary correct the routing of the wiring harness. If a wiring harness has been damaged the correct level of repair will be applied after advice is sought from the manufacturer.

EGR PIPE MAY CRACK AND ALLOW EXHAUST GASES TO LEAK
It has been identified that during production the EGR pipe has been manufactured from incorrect thickness material. Due to the affect of stresses i.e. heat vibration etc on the pipe it can lead to cracking. If there is significant crack there is a possibility exhaust gases could leak. This could cause surrounding parts to deteriorate. If this happens the vehicle will emit black smoke from the exhaust there will be a loss of power and a warning light will illuminate on the instrument panel.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace to the EGR pipe.
SEATBELT MAY SEPARATE FROM THE BUCKLE
It has been identified there is a possibility the front seatbelt buckle stud may not have been punched correctly during production. This may result in a separation between the buckle and seatbelt bracket if the vehicle is involved in a collision.
Recall all affected vehicles to inspect the seatbelt buckle and if required to replace the seatbelt buckle.
SEATBELT MAY SEPARATE FROM THE BUCKLE
It has been identified there is a possibility the front seatbelt buckle stud may not have been punched correctly during production. This may result in a separation between the buckle and seatbelt bracket if the vehicle is involved in a collision.
Recall all affected vehicles to inspect the seatbelt buckle and if required to replace the seatbelt buckle.

DRIVERS AIRBAG MAY DEPLOY INCORRECTLY
The driver's air bag inflator may rupture during deployment. Metal shards may pass through the air bag material and cause injury to occupants.
On affected vehicles replace air bag and inflator assemblies.

CURTAIN AIRBAGS AND SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERS MAY DEPLOY INCORRECTLY
Due to improper programming of the airbag system in the Airbag Sensor Assembly (airbag control module) there is a possibility that the Airbag Sensor Assembly may erroneously detect a rollover and deploy the Curtain Shield Airbags (CSA) and seat belt pre-tensioners. The deployment of the CSA could cause minor injury to a vehicle occupant.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the Airbag Control Unit.

STOP LAMP MAY NOT BE FUNCTIONING AS EXPECTED
It has been identified that under certain unusual conditions the High Mounted Stop Lamp (HMSL) fitted to Navara accessory hardtops does not illuminate simultaneously with the vehicle's stop lamps. During engine start it is possible that a voltage drop can occur which may fall below the HMSL operating threshold. This may result in HMSL not illuminating following engine start.
Recall all affected vehicles to modify wiring and the supply to the HMSL.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION MAY MALFUNCTION
It has been identified on certain 6 cylinder diesel engine/9 speed automatic transmission vehicles the starter/alternator/transmission wiring harness may be too close to the exhaust system. If it is then there is a risk that the wiring harness may suffer heat damage which can result in the transmission inadvertently selecting neutral whilst driving the Auto P function or the manual P function in the transmission not being available. The manually operated parking brake will still function.
Recall all affected vehicles to check and if required reroute or replace the wiring harness. The type of action is dependant on the amount of damage present.

BRAKING PERFORMANCE MAY BE REDUCED
The brake servo booster may not have been correctly manufactured. This may cause a harder feel to the brake pedal operation and require more effort from the driver.
Replace Brake Servo Booster on affected vehicles.
