FUEL TANK MAY BECOME LOOSE
A fuel tank supporting strap may not have been correctly formed during production. The strap can crack and may with prolonged use break.
On affected vehicles replace strap.
LOSS OF STEER
It is possible that the steering wheel boss may not have been produced to the correct specification. If a higher than normal loading is applied to the steering wheel typically on low speed manoeuvring it is possible that the steering wheel boss may separate from the steering column. This can result in a loss of steering control.
Recall all affected vehicles to check and if necessary replace the steering wheel assembly.
ENGINE MAY LOOSE POWER
On affected vehicles it is possible for drivers to unintentionally to bump the ignition key with their knee. This could cause the key to move from the run position and result in a loss of engine power. If the key is not in the run position it is possible in the event of an accident air bags may not deploy.
Remove existing ignition key blades and replace with new blades and key rings.
UNINTENTIONAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT
In rare cases an air bag acceleration sensor may give an incorrect signal which can lead to an unintentional airbag deployment
Recall vehicle check if vehicle is affected and replace the control unit as required.

Recall vehicle check if vehicle is affected and replace the control unit as required.
EMERGENCY BRAKE MAY NOT FUNCTION
During the manufacturing process a support bracket was omitted from the braking system. Without the bracket being in place the emergency brakes cannot be applied.
Recall the trailers that are likely to be affected and fit a support bracket to the braking system.

ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
A batch of fuel injector may have been assembled correctly. The internal valve can fail and cause reduced fuel pressure and engine shutdown shutdown with no restart.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the injectors. If the injectors of concern are fitted they will be replaced.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the injectors. If the injectors of concern are fitted they will be replaced.
ENGINE MAY STALL
Due to a fault in the engine ECU software it is possible that the 4M41 engines in the Shogun will not learn the variations or age deterioration in injectors and be able to adjust the amount of fuel being injection accordingly. This inability to learn these values correctly can result in the engine emits an excessive amount of soot to the DPF which can block it. This can result in the engine stalling and not being able to restart.
Recall all affected vehicles and reprogramme engine ECU software.
REVERSE GEAR MAY NOT FUNCTION
On affected vehicles a component within the transmission valve block may be defective. If the component fails the gear box may not select gears correctly. In the worst case scenario the driver may not be able to select reverse gear.
On affected vehicles inspect the gearbox valve block. Depending on inspection outcome replace valve body installation kit or valve body assembly.
ENGINE MAY STALL
Due to a high carbon build up the check ball seat of the timing chain tensioner can show premature wear. It is possible that the check ball may stick to the seat preventing the tensioner from functioning properly. This in turn will result in an un-tensioned timing chain which causes a rattling noise and in the worst cases the chain will break.
Replace tensioner on all affected vehicles. Depending on outcome of further inspections the timing chain may also need to be replaced.
SEAT BASE MAY CRACK
The Front radius angles in the driver�s and passenger metal seat base may not have been formed correctly and as a result the seat base may suffer from stress cracks which could compromise the strength of the seat base in the unlikely event of a rear end collision. The seat belt system is an integrated part of the seat.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the driver and passenger seat bases.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the driver and passenger seat bases.
STEERING MAY BE RESTRICTED
On affected vehicles the steering may be considerably restricted due to a faulty steering angle sensor
On affected vehicles check sensor and replace steering gear including steering angle sensor if necessary

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the driver and passenger seat bases.
SHORT CIRCUIT WITH POSSIBILITY THAT FIRE MAY OCCUR
If the radiator-cooling fan becomes blocked there is a risk that an electrical short circuit can occur. This in turn could cause damage to the cooling fan module and in the worst case potentially resulting in a vehicle fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to programme the Engine Control Module with the latest software.
BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE AFFECTED
It has been established that Oil Carbon and Granulated Dust contamination could cause the ventilation function of the Shutoff and Safety Valve to be impaired. The internal air pressure of the Safety Valve can therefore increase from 18.5bar to over 40bar. This can result in the failure/rupture of the top section of the housing of the air drier cartridge. The brake system will remain operation to enable the driver to bring the vehicle to a control stop after they hear the rupture.
Recall all affected vehicle to install a pressure limiting valve.
SECONDARY BONNET CATCH MAY NOT ENGAGE
The Hood Striker Secondary Latch may suffer from a build-up of corrosion. If this condition occurs the Hood Striker Secondary Latch may not return to the correct position when released. In such an event and especially when the primary locking device is not engaged correctly there is a potential the hood can open while the vehicle is being driven.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the Hood Striker Secondary Latch.
BRAKING IMBALANCE MAY MAKE VEHICLE UNSTABLE
The fixing bolts for the front and rear hub assemblies are not to specification. The bolts could break and cause loud noise followed by severe vibration wheel lock possibly a bolt could puncture the brake disc or even if all the bolts are damaged the hub may become insecure to the axle. The aforementioned will cause instability and significantly increase the risk of collision.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace all the front and rear wheel hub fixings. If any damaged has been caused by bolts failing the affected components will be replaced.
BRAKE FAILURE MAY OCCUR
During Heavy braking on affected vehicles the pedal foot protection system could be activated. This will cause the brake pedal to unlatch and move to the safety position. Foot brake operation will be lost. The manufacturer has advised the vehicles should not be driven until rectified.
Not known at present. Manufacturer advises not to use vehicles until remedy has been determined and actioned.
HAND RAIL MAY BECOME DETATCHED
Double seat behind centre emergency door has an unsatisfactory mounting at side wall. If it becomes loose at the mounting it breaks away from the side wall. This will cause the seat to drop and cause the hand rail by the centre passage way that is attached at the top of the seat to become detached.
Modify seat mounting to prevent the seat from breaking away.
INADEQUATE PARK LOCK FUNCTION
Inadequate park-lock function when moving off on steep slopes
Update software on affected vehicles.
FRONT GEAR FAILURE
Components in the front differential may not be made to the correct standard. In particular the pinion carrier stud may move or crack when in 4WD mode during heavy or off road use..
Install an updated front gear case kit.
