AIRBAG MAY INCORRECTLY DEPLOY
On affected vehicles the driver's air bag inflation device may not conform to specification. As a result may not deploy correctly during an impact.
Replace the driver's air bag module on affected vehicles
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL COULD BE COMPROMISED
There is a possibility that a strut top mounting bearing could be damaged when a high load is applied to the strut such as when the vehicle is driven over a large bump. If this occurs there could be abnormal noise when driving on uneven roads or when turning the steering wheel. If the vehicle continues to be operated the upper side of the strut rod could separate causing a loss of vehicle stability which could increase the risk of a crash.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the strut mounting bearings with improved ones. If a strut mounting bearing is found to be damaged the dealer will replace the strut and front suspension support sub-assembly with a new one.
FUEL MAY LEAK
Fuel may leak from connections for the fuel tank breather and vent hoses on to the ground. Poor engine running may be experienced accompanied by the engine management warning light. The fuel on the ground can be a hazard for other road users.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the existing connections for the breather and vent hoses with modified items that allow from an expansion space for fuel within the tank so that excess fuel cannot enter the breather line or carbon canister.
THREADED CONNECTION OF THE RIGHT REAR SEAT BELT END FITTING MAY FAIL IN A COLLISION
Due to a deviation in the manufacturing process the retaining bolt for the right rear seal belt may not have been tightened to the correct specification. In the event of a collision the belt may fail.
Where necessary rework threaded connection tighten securing bolt to correct specification.

FUEL MAY LEAK
The fuel injectors supply rail could develop a leak over a period of time leading to a drop in fuel pressure in the injector supply rail which can affect the operation of the stop start system. In some extreme cases the engine might not restart and a spray of petrol under the bonnet may occur which is a fire risk.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the fuel injector supply rail. Where necessary replace the fuel injector supply rail.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the fuel injector supply rail. Where necessary replace the fuel injector supply rail.
BRAKES MAY NOT PERFORM AS EXPECTED
The brake master cylinder push rod and boot are allowing air to pass into the master cylinder which will gradually extend the movement of the lever until the efficiency of the brake is compromised.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the brake master cylinder push rod and boot.

DIESEL FUEL MAY LEAK AND IN EXTREME CIRCUMSTANCES CREATE RISK OF FIRE
Due to a misrouted fuel pipe a metal hose clip my chafe against a nylon fuel pipe and may cause a fuel leak
On affected vehicles reroute piping and replace any damaged pipes.
POSSIBLE LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL
The thread on the swivel pin of the track rod end might not be to specification. Therefore when the nut was tightened onto the thread the correct clamping force may not have been attained. After high mileage damage might occur and develop. If not attended to there is a possiblility that the component might fail and steering control would be lost.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the thread on the swivel joint of the track rod end. Where it does not conform to specification replace the track rod end.

FRONT AIRBAG AND/OR SEATBELT PRE-TENSIONER MAY DEPLOY UNEXPECTEDLY
The airbag system Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) module may experience a front airbag and/or seatbelt pre-tensioner inadvertent deployment. An inadvertent deployment while driving could distract the driver and cause a crash without warning.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the ORC module. Note: Vehicles that had Safety Recall (manufacturer�s ref.M35 � DVSA ref. R/2013/120) - Occupant Restraint Control Module Filter Circuit completed must also have the ORC module filter circuit removed. Due to issues with parts supply the recall of WG/WJ models is suspended however KJ models remain unaffected
RIDER MAY BE UNABLE TO SELECT GEARS AND / OR ENGINE MAY SEIZE
The clutch release bearing may not be to specification which can result in difficult clutch and gear use. Additionally the oil pump pressure relief valve may not be to specification which can result in broken gear and reduced lubrication and potentially to engine seizure and loss of machine control.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the clutch pressure plate and oil pump assemblies with remedial parts.

SEAT BELT RESTRAINT FUNCTION MAY BE IMPAIRED IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION
On affected vehicles the incorrect type of bolt may have been supplied during repair work involving the removal of the seat belt mount or belt reel.
Check type of bolt fitted and replace where necessary.
MANUAL CHILD LOCKS ON REAR PASSENGER DOORS MAY DISENGAGE WITHOUT WARNING
The door child locks may disengage without driver knowledge. Though the door remains close it is possible for the door to then be opened from the inside.
On affected vehicles inspect lock mechanism and replace where necessary.

RISK OF FIRE
The exhaust tailpipe variants K7D K7C and K7N can become loose. Variant K7D can fall away from the vehicle leading to a heightened risk of incident for other road users. Where an exhaust gas leak occurs this can constitute a risk of fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the seal of the exhaust tail pipe flange with a metal bead gasket.
