FUEL MAY LEAK / RISK OF FIRE
There is a possibility of a fuel leak via fuel pump sub harness because of a problem with the moulding tool used to manufacturer the sub harness. A fuel leak could heighten the risk of fire.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the sub harness with one of a new design.

ENGINE MAY CUT OUT AND FAIL TO RESTART
The under bonnet low pressure fuel feed hose may detach from the fuel filter. A fuel smell may be noticed due to fuel leaking into the engine bay and in the event of hose detachment the engine will cut out. Once the engine has cut out the brake vacuum reservoir will be depleted after 2-3 brake pedal depressions and the vehicle will lose brake power assistance however foundation brakes continue to operate. The engine cannot be re-started. Engine cut out with minimal warning could potentially cause a crash.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and add a spring wire retention clip to the low pressure fuel feed hose joint.
HEADLIGHT AUTO LEVELLING SYSTEM MAY MALFUNCTION WHEN VEHICLE IS FULLY LADEN
On affected vehicles with Pulsar headlight auto levelling the initialisation process during production was incorrect. In this condition affected vehicles may not correctly adjust the height of the headlamp aim when the rear of the vehicle is heavily laden and therefore may not comply with the specific regulation requirements
Reprogram the Intelligent Power Distribution Module (IPDM) and re-initialise the headlamp auto-levelling system.

RISK OF FIRE
The threaded connection of the battery ground may not be tightened correctly due to deviation in the tightening angle monitoring. In the event of a poor ground of the battery line a temporarily higher transition resistance could lead to the formation of sparks and local heating. This would increase the risk of fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the ground connection of the battery line and if necessary replace the ground connection.
UNINTENTIONAL DEPLOYMENT OF AN AIRBAG
Due to an incorrect manufacturing process swarf may accumulate in the airbag control module and cause a short circuit. In extreme instances this may cause unintentional deployment of an air bag.
On affected vehicles replace the airbag control module.
DRIVER'S SEAT BACKREST MAY DETACH FROM SEAT BASE
Due to a deviation in the manufacturing process the back rest on the driver's seat may have a lower durability than designed. This may cause it to come loose or detach.
On affected models with a Premium driver's seat replace the seat back rest.

THROTTLE PEDAL MAY STICK IN ANY POSITION
Throttle pedal may jam in any position. This can lead to a heightened risk of a collision.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the throttle pedal cover carpet mats carpet mat fixings modify floor covering depending on VIN list and inspection.
INADVERTENT DEPLOYMENT OF A FRONT AIRBAG
The Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) module may allow a front airbag and/or seatbelt pretensioner to inadvertently deploy.
On affected vehicles replace the ORC Module. Due to issues with parts supply the recall of WG/WJ models is suspended however KJ models remain unaffected.

FIRE MAY OCCUR
Water intrusion into the power liftgate module electrical connectors can lead to corrosion and higher resistance. This condition can cause the module to become inoperative and/or cause a fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected. The vehicles will be inspected for evidence of water intrusion and electrical connector corrosion. The vehicle will be repaired to eliminate the possibility of further water intrusion. On vehicles found with corrosion in the power liftgate module electrical connectors the module and electrical connectors will be replaced. All the vehicles will receive a power liftgate module water shield.

Throttle pedal may jam in any position. This can lead to a heightened risk of a collision.

ACTUATORS MAY LOSE FUNCTIONALITY
On some TRISTOP� actuators the chambers may not have been correctly assembled and the load from power spring and pressure is not fully taken. Under certain circumstances the parking side and the service sides of the actuator could separate and the actuator could lose functionality. Ultimately this could lead to a loss of braking functionality and/or brake failure. Critical applications are vehicles such as city buses or garbage collection vehicles (subject to a high parking brake frequency). Long haul applications are not considered critical and thus do not require an exchange.
Identify and replace affected actuators.
RISK OF FIRE
Due to exposure of water and dirt intrusion in the engine compartment the alternators may fail prematurely due to seized bearings. In the worst case an alternator could overheat causing an engine compartment fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and if the mileage is over 60000km replace both alternators and drive belt. All vehicles are to have existing protection shields replaced with new improved versions.
VEHICLE MAY MOVE FORWARDS UNINTENTIONALLY
It is possible that a hybrid bus standing still with the diesel engine running on idle could suddenly move by itself. An incorrect accelerator pedal system can provide the gearbox with a corrupt acceleration request signal. The gearbox can change clutch status from disengaged to engaged which results in sudden vehicle movement if the vehicle is left in gear with the handbrake off.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and update the I-shift gearbox software.
BONDED WINDOWS AND/OR FASTENING RAILS MAY DETACH
It is possible that some vehicles have poor paint adhesion which can lead to a reduced retaining force of the bonded windows/fastening rails. The windows may not remain attached to the vehicle when it is subject to high forces during a collision.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to remove the windscreen and prepare and repaint the receiving surfaces then re-bond the windscreen. If there are also windows in the load area these will be treated the same.
OIL LEAK MAY DAMAGE ENGINE
An oil leak could develop at the turbocharger lubrication union retaining bolt due to a non-conformity of this part.
On affected vehicles replace the turbocharger lubrication union bolt and its seals.
