FIRE MAY OCCUR
The engine compartment seal may not be fully secure. There is a possibility that the seal may become dislodged and fall between the engine and the fire wall. If this occurs it is possible for the seal to contact very hot items such as the catalytic converter and a fire to start.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit a new seal with fittings.
LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL
The gears within the steering rack may not have been manufactured to the correct specification which may allow them to crack over a period of time. Prolonged use could cause loss of steering control.
On affected vehicles replace steering gear assembly

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit a new seal with fittings.
THIRD ROW PASSENGER AIRBAGS MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY AS INTENDED
Affected vehicles have interior panels that may prevent the inflatable curtain airbags from deploying as intended. This could reduce the level of protection offered to third row passengers in the event of an accident.
Modify affected interior panels to allow the inflatable curtains to deploy as intended.
VEHICLE MAY ROLL AWAY
The operating lock in the gear selector lever module may not have been assembled correctly. Therefore it might be possible to operate the gear selector lever without pressing the brake pedal and without the key in position �ignition on�. If the vehicle is not properly secured with the parking brake it could start rolling by shifting from �P� after pressing the release knob.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the selector lever module and if necessary replace it.
AUTOMATIC GEAR SELECTION MAY NOT PERFORM AS EXPECTED
Due to an incorrectly designed bracket Park may not engage or disengage as intended..
On affected vehicles check and if necessary replace bracket.
UNINTENDED ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION
The engine control unit may not be programmed correctly. In rare cases it is possible for the acceleration or deceleration not to be as the driver�s request. Therefore a critical driving situation could occur. However the power of the brake enables the driver to stop the vehicle at any time.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and update the engine control unit software.
VEHICLE MAY ROLL AWAY
The software of the transmission control unit in vehicles with dual clutch transmission may not be correct. As a result the operating lock of the transmission selector lever may not function as intended causing in some circumstances the vehicle to roll when not expected.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and update the transmission control unit software.
ENGINE MAY STOP WITHOUT WARNING
Retaining bolts for the timing chain tensioners and cam shaft drive may not have been tightened to the correct specifications. This may cause the timing chain to slacken and with continued use engine damage.
On affected vehicles replace timing chain tensioners. Check tensioner guide and camshaft drive retaining screws and if necessary tighten to correct specifications.
BRAKES MAY FAIL
The affected brake discs have been incorrectly machined in that the corner undercut has been over machined to a depth of 9mm reducing the wall thickness. Braking surfaces can separate from the mounting with a consequent loss of braking.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the brake discs.
FRONT SEAT LAP BELT PRE-TENSIONER MAY NOT FUNCTION AS INTENDED
The front seats are equipped with lap and shoulder belt pretentioners. In certain head on or rear end collisions the lap belt pretentioner will deploy but not lock in the loaded position. This can increase the risk of injury when the conditions are met. Parts for the recall will not be available until October 2015.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace both front pretentioners with lap belt.
FRONT AXLE BRAKE CALIPERS MAY BECOME LOOSE
On affected vehicles incorrect screws may have been used to retain the front calipers.
Check affected vehicles and replace retaining screws if necessary.
FRONT AXLE BRAKE CALIPERS MAY BECOME LOOSE
On affected vehicles incorrect screws may have been used to retain the front calipers.
Check affected vehicles and replace retaining screws if necessary.
REAR SHOCK ABSORBER MAY FAIL CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE MACHINE
The rear suspension unit has a possible assembly defect in that the piston-shaft nut has in some cases not been correctly tightened. If a defective suspension unit is fitted there could be an oil leak or a loss of damping control which can adversely affect the handling of the machine.
The owner is given a web-address to follow and access the necessary information to acertain if the shock absorber is definately affected and what to do if it is in the affected range. If your shock absorber is affected by the recall please contact the �hlins distributor in your country for an appointment to have your shock absorber corrected.
LOSS OF POWER
Due to none conformity during manufacture the resistance of the insulated base inside the Engine Control Unit (ECU) which controls the electric motor may decrease. As a result the voltage in the circuit may become unstable causing the warning light to illuminate and the driving motor power to be restricted to the fail safe control. In the worst case scenario the vehicle may not be able to be restarted and the battery may not be able to be charged.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the engine ECU.
MALFUNCTION CAUSING INSTRUMENT PANEL FUNCTIONS TO BECOME INOPERABLE
An electronic component within the Built-in Systems Interface (BSI) may not be to the correct specification. This could cause the audio-navigation system the wipers and exterior lighting to malfunction and the warning light on the instrument panel may illuminate.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the production date of the BSI unit. Where the production date of the BSI unit is in the affected range the unit will be replaced.
LOSS OF POWER
Due to none conformity during manufacture the resistance of the insulated base inside the motor control unit (MCU) which controls the electric motor may decrease. As a result the voltage in the circuit may become unstable causing the warning light to illuminate and the driving motor power to be restricted to the fail safe control. In the worst case scenario the vehicle may not be able to be restarted and the battery may not be able to be charged.

AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY
The drivers air bag propellant cannister may not have been fitted correctly. This may affect the deployment of the airbag.
Replace driver's air bag unit.
FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY
Certain fuses in the passenger's footwell may not have been fitted correctly. This may adversely affect the instrument cluster windscreen wipers and the passenger seat occupancy recognition system. In certain conditions this may cause the passenger's air bag not to deploy in an accident.
On affected vehicles check fuses and if necessary replace fuse box.
