LOSS OF BRAKING EFFICIENCY
It is possible that the front wheel liners have been incorrectly positioned giving potential for them to rub against the front brake hoses. This in turn could in rare circumstances cause increased brake pedal travel and affect the braking efficiency of the vehicle. This issue may be highlighted by a warning message Braking system fault and a warning light on the dashboard.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and inspect the front wheel arch liners and brake hoses. If they are found to be incorrectly positioned they will be replaced free of charge.
RISK OF FIRE
The power side view mirrors may experience a loss of right and/or left heated power mirror function. This is due to corrosion caused water may travelling along the heated power mirror wiring harness and into the heated power mirror electrical connector(s). This corrosion inside the forms a resistive bridge between the power and ground electrical terminals and could cause a fire without warning.
On affected vehicles relocate the power feed electrical terminal for the heated power mirrors to a separate electrical connector and add a water shield.
FUEL MAY LEAK
Fuel may leak from the injector rails. Drivers may notice a smell of fuel and or evidence of a leak
On affected vehicles replace injector rails and seals.

UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION MAY OCCUR
The engine ECM unit may have an error with its software. This could under certain exceptional engine start circumstances result in the ECM setting an incorrect engine throttle valve position. When the engine speed is in excess of 3600 rpm the customer may briefly experience an unexpected acceleration. However the driver can counter this by applying the brakes.
Recall all affected vehicles to install new software.
FUEL MAY LEAK
Fuel may leak from the injector rails. Drivers may notice a smell of fuel and or evidence of a leak
On affected vehicles replace injector rails and seals.
FUEL MAY LEAK RESULTING IN POSSIBLE FIRE
It is possible that fuel can leak from a fuel delivery rail due to insufficient soldering during production.
On affected vehicles replace fuel rail.
FUEL MAY LEAK
Fuel may leak from the injector rails. Drivers may notice a smell of fuel and or evidence of a leak
On affected vehicles replace injector rails and seals.
POSSIBILITY OF LOSS OF CONTROL
It has been identified that a weld on the replacement lower front wishbone arm may not have been to the correct specification. The arm has a missing weld on the inner side of the mounting tube fixation to the wishbone arm. This could result in the arm failing without warning to the driver who could loose control of the vehicle.
Recall affected vehicles to inspect the lower front wishbone arm and if it is found that the weld is not to specificaition replace the arm.

STEERING ASSISTANCE MAY BE LOST
Two LEDs are used to calculate torque applied to the steering wheel. If the ECU senses a discrepancy in the torque sensing circuitry an indicator lamp is illuminated in the instrument cluster a diagnostic code is stored and steering assist is no longer provided. The driver will have to supply more effort to steering the vehicle.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and re-programme the steering ECU. The steering will then be tested. If the vehicle fails the test a new torque sensor will be fitted.
FUEL MAY LEAK
A fuel leak could occur at the fuel pressure sensor to injector rail seal due to a non conformance of production methods. If the leak occurs a smell will be noticed by the occupants of the vehicle.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and re-tighten the fuel pressure sensor to a specified higher torque value.
WHEEL NUTS MAY DETACH
On affected vehicles the road wheel nuts may not have been manufactured to the correct specification. These wheel nuts may crackwhen subject to shock loads and detach from the stud. This may lead to insecurity and possible detachment of a road wheel.
Recall affected vehicles and replace wheel nuts. Locking wheel nuts are not affected.
WHEEL MAY DETATCH
It is possible that during maintenance work on brake discs and/or wheel changes threaded fasteners might have been over tightened. The over tightening can result in cracks in the wheel flange. In the course of a lengthy service life the cracks can propagate and under worst-case conditions lead to fracture of the bolted join and the wheel separating from the machine. Initially owners will be warned of the concern and when the new components are available the owners will be notified so the components can be replaced.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the aluminium wheel flange with a steel flange.
POSSIBILITY THAT STEERING CONTROL MAY BE LOST
The defect affects specific front lower suspension arms designed to fit Mazda 3 and Mazda 5. The arms may develop a stress fracture which may allow the outer ball joint to detach. This may cause the driver to loose control.
Replace affected arms.

FRONT SEATBELTS MAY NOT FUNCTION AS INTENDED
It has been identified that the front seatbelt anchorage links may not have been manufactured to the correct specification. If the link is subjected to an abnormal force then it may not perform as required.
Recall all the affected vehicles to check the link and if required replace it.
