BRAKE FLUID MAY LEAK
The affected vehicles may in some instances experience increased braking distance and potential degradation of braking performance caused by a leak of Brake Fluid from a Front Brake Hose. The Driver may notice a leakage of Brake Fluid on the ground and/or via the Brake Fluid Level warning light in the Instrument Panel with Ignition on.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the front brake hoses.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the front brake hoses.
SERVICE COVER MAY NOT BE SECURE
The existing locking mechanism is not sufficient to secure the service cover situated at the rear left. The cover could open whilst the bus is in motion and be a danger to other roadusers.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and secure the rear left service cover with a retaining strap.
STEERING WHEEL MAY BECOME LOOSE
It has been identified that the steering wheel securing bolt may work loose. This can ultimately result in the securing bolt unscrewing and the steering wheel detaching. This would then result in loss of directional control. However the concern should be identified to the driver by the movement in the wheel before it becomes an issue.
Recall all affected vehicles to check and replace the steering wheel securing bolt.

SHORT CIRCUIT MAY OCCUR
The water droplets formed by condensation at the roof panels can drip into the circuit board of the auxiliary switch panel. The condensation will affect for example rear lamp clusters saloon heating. If not rectified eventually smoke with the attendant smell could occur and after a time there is a theoretical risk of fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit a cover over the auxiliary switch panel.
OIL MAY LEAK
On vehicles with affected engines the 'O' ring may not have been produced to the correct specification. This may allow oil to leak and contaminate the environment. If excessive oil is lost engine damage may occur.
On affected vehicles replace the chain tensioner sealing ring.
LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL
A small number of steering knuckles on hub swivels have been manufactured incorrectly. In time these knuckles might fail with the attendant loss of directional control of the vehicle.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the production date code on steering knuckles fitted to both sides. Replace the steering knuckles where required.
SHORT CIRCUIT MAY OCCUR
Wiring and harnesses to alternators starter pre-heater and other ancilliary functions could abrade and cause a short circuit.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to re-route and secure the affected harnesses and cables.
POSSIBLE RAPID DEFLATION
As a result of reports of rapid tyre deflation received from in use vehicles caused by various possible manufacturing deficiencies which could have been aggravated by servicing omissions the manufacturer has decided to perform a precautionary recall of the associated tyres. If a rapid deflation occurs on a steered axle the directional control can be adversely affected.
Recall the vehicles fitted with the possibly affected tyres and fit new tyres to any axle with the tyres affected by the recall.

PARKING BRAKE MAY UNINTENTIONALLY RELEASE
Vehicles with manual gearboxes and start/stop functionality have Parking Brake Module (PBM) software that may allow the parking brake to unintentionally release. The unintended release of the parking brake can only occur when the engine is running and the gearstick moved so it will happen when the vehicle is attended.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to download upgraded Parking Brake Module (PBM) software.

FIRE MAY OCCUR
Under very hot ambient conditions and low speed riding the temperature in the engine compartment may rise and thereby increase the risk of a skin burn or a vehicle fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and install reflecting heat shields and heat deflectors.
POSSIBLE LOSS OF BRAKING EFFICIENCY
On affected vehicles the servo vacuum hose may have been incorrectly routed and can chafe against the auxiliary drive pulley. This can lead to failure of the hose and a loss of brake servo assistance.
On affected vehicles check brake servo hose. If in good condition correctly reroute and secure hose. If hose is damaged replace hose and correctly route and secure.
DRIVER AIRBAG MAY FRACTURE DURING DETONATION
It has been identified that due to the incorrect assembly of the driver airbag inflator. If the vehicle is involved in a collision and the air bag is required to deploy then the gas flow path may have been blocked increasing the internal pressure within the inflator. As a result the driver airbag inflator casing may crack and fragment.
Recall all affected vehicle to inspect and where necessary replace driver airbag with a quality assured item.
