FUEL MAY LEAK
On affected vehicles the flange of the fuel pump located in the top of the fuel tank may deteriorate and crack. This may allow fuel to leak.
Inspect pump. If flange is cracked replace pump and fit new protective cover. If flange is not cracked fit new protective cover only.
DRIVER SEATBELT LATCH MAY FAIL IN THE EVENT OF A FRONTAL COLLISION
The rear seat belt buckle (catch) could be defective. In the event of a frontal impact a defective buckle could fail causing the rear seat occupant to be unrestrained by the seat belt.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the rear seat belt buckles and if found to be part of the defective batch new buckles will be fitted.
REAR SHOCK ABSORBER MAY FAIL CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE MACHINE
The rear shock absorber piston rod nut may come loose. The shock absorber performance may be affected possibly causing a loss of machine control.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the shock absorber..
OIL MAY LEAK FROM SHOCK ABSORBER AND REDUCE EFFECTIVENESS OF REAR SUSPENSION
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 and a gradual loss of damping control which over time can adversely affect the handling of the machine.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the rear suspension unit.
DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL MAY NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY
As a result of the ABS system self check software not being installed correctly�Yaw Stability Control (YSC) Electronic Traction Control (ETC) and Gradient Release Control�systems may become disabled. The air suspension goes into �Safe Mode� lowering to its lowest setting. An Amber warning indicator illuminates warning the driver.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and download the latest level of software.
OIL MAY LEAK FROM SHOCK ABSORBER AND REDUCE EFFECTIVENESS OF REAR SUSPENSION
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 and a gradual loss of damping control which over time can adversely affect the handling of the machine.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the rear suspension unit.
ROOF HATCH MAY DETACH
During production the roof hatch could have been attached incorrectly. It is possible for the roof hatch to detach and cause a risk of personal injury and vehicle damage.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary fit a new roof hatch.
BRAKES MAY ACTIVATE WITHOUT WARNING
It has been identified that the software on vehicles equipped with Advanced Emergency Braking (AEB) system has an error in its programming. This could cause the AEB system to incorrectly registered a collision risk with a stationary object and brake the vehicle to avoid a collision. This could result in the drive loosing control or an emergency braking situation without the drivers knowledge.
Recall all affected vehicles and upload new software to the AEB system.
LOSS OF CLUTCH CONTROL
It is possible that the hydraulic clutch may provide insufficient lift to allow the clutch to fully disconnect drive when the machine has been left for a time. Loss of control may occur when starting the machine in gear or when selecting gear to pull away.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to fit a new clutch master cylinder repair kit. If corrosion is found in the bore of the master cylinder the master cylinder will be replaced.
LOSS OF CONTROL
Depending on driving conditions and suspension type it is a possibility that the ball joint on a front lower arm and also on certain vehicles a rear track rod could break.
Recall affected vehicles and where necessary replace front lower ball joint(s) and rear track rod(s)

Recall affected vehicles and where necessary replace front lower ball joint(s) and rear track rod(s)
FUEL MAY LEAK
The Fuel and Fuel Vapour Lines do not have adequate corrosion-resistant protective coating. Corrosion of the Fuel Line may result fuel leaking.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the Fuel and Fuel Vapour Lines with ones of revised specification.
BIKE MAY BECOME UNSTABLE
The oil delivery pipe union bolt may be defective. As a result the transmission may be starved of oil causing damage and ultimately failure possibly resulting in a loss of control of the machine.
Recall the machines that are likely to be defective and check the oil delivery pipe union bolt. If it is defective the engine unit will be replaced.
CLUTCH PEDAL MAY FAIL
Spark vehicles may in some instances experience breakage on clutch pedal pivot area due to inaccurate height adjustment of clutch pedal
Adjust clutch pedal height and where required fit reinforcing bracket.
ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL MAY BECOME DISABLED
The Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) may experience electrical interference (static) in the SCCM printed circuit board communication circuit. This unintended electrical interference (static) can cause the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) to become disabled and the ESC warning lamp to illuminate. A loss of ESC function during certain driving conditions could cause a crash without warning.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and reprogramme the Steering Column Control Module.
THROTTLE MAY JAM
Factory quality testing has found the throttle housing has the potential of causing the throttle cable to jam and become inoperative. This can lead to the rider not being in full control.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the front half throttle housing and both throttle cables.
POSSIBILITY OF LOSS OF CONTROL
The rear shock absorber piston rod nut may come loose. The shock absorber performance may be affected possibly causing a loss of machine control. The manufacturer recomends the machine is not ridden until the concern is assessed and where necessary repaired.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and check if the machine is fitted with an affected shock absorber. Where an affected unit is fitted the complete shock absorber will be replaced.
POSSIBILITY OF LOSS OF CONTROL
The control unit for the steered trailing axle may crack due to a warped fixing bracket and allow the ingress of moisture.This may cause a short circuit. Normally a yellow fault message will appear and the system will immediately default to safe passive steering mode. However it is possible the defect may have an adverse affect on the performance of the axle whilst the vehicle is in motion.
On affected vehicles replace the control unit bracket Check and if necessary replace the control unit.

CAB MAY FALL BACK OR OVER WHEN TILTING
It has been identified that the lower attachment bolt for the cab tilting ram may have been torqued to too high a torque specification. This can result in the bolt becoming stretched which could cause a breakage of the bolt and the cab may either fall backwards or right forwards whilst it is being tilted.
Recall all affected vehicles to replace the lower cab attachment bolt and torque to the correct specification.

This can result in the bolt becoming stretched which could cause a breakage of the bolt and the cab may either fall backwards or right forwards whilst it is being tilted.
Recall all affected vehicles to replace the lower cab attachment bolt and torque to the correct specification.
STEERING MAY BECOME LIMITED OR BLOCKED
The front suspension road spring eye mounting bolts may not have been torqued to the correct specification. During operation it is possible that the spring eye mounting bolts could work loose and unwind. This could result in the movement of the axle which could compromise the directional control of the vehicle. However the driver should become aware of the issue by noise or found by the maintenance staff during routine maintenance.
Recall all affected vehicles to retorque the mounting bolts.
