BUMPER MAY NOT PERFORM AS DESIGNED IN A COLLISION
Affected vehicles may have a small defect in the front bumper frame. This may affect its impact absorption in the even of a collision.
If required replace front bumper frame.
POSSIBILITY OF FIRE
In the event the radiator cooling fan is blocked there is a risk that an electrical short circuit can occur. This in turn causes damage to the cooling fan module and in the worst case could potentially result in a vehicle fire.
In the first instance the battery cover must be removed to prevent overheating of the wiring/module. The cover should be disposed of and must not be refitted at any time. Check the cooling fan is not obstructed or blocked in anyway In approximately in 4 to 6 months-time an adapter wiring harness will become available and Authorised Repairers will be instructed to install this harness to the cooling fan module. This is now closed and superceeded by 16-C-004

If required replace front bumper frame.
POTENTIAL OF SMOKE AND NON START
The wiring connectors in the main junction box located in the engine compartment may not have been torqued correctly. This could lead to loose connections initially causing smoke being emitted and if ignored the vehicle not starting.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check whether the torque for the electrical connections are to specification. Where necessary adjust the torque to specification.
LOSS OF CONTROL
The front shock absorber rod may have an internal fault which could cause it to break. This could have an adverse affect on the front suspension and the driver's ability to control the vehicle.
On affected vehicles replace both front shock absorbers.

ENGINE MAY STALL
The wiring for the indicator harness and front sub harness may fail. This can affect the headlight turn signals speedometer and alarm horn. In the worst case the engine may stall while riding.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the front sub-harness and the indicator switch harness.
SEAT BELT MAY OPEN INADVERTENTLY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH
The buckles on seat belts fitted to the 2nd row of seats may have a weakness created during the manufacturing process. This weakness may allow the buckle to inadvertently open during a collision.
On affected vehicles check the traceability codes of the 2nd row seat belts. Replace those belts which have an affected code.
FUEL MAY LEAK - POSSIBILITY OF FIRE
Fuel may leak from the injector fuel rails. Occupants may notice a smell and though small there is a risk of fire.
Replace injector fuel rails

Replace injector fuel rails
POSSIBLE LOSS OF BRAKING EFFICIENCY
It is possible that one or both of the front brake hoses could rupture allowing brake fluid to leak. A warning lamp and message will appear on the dash board when the fluid depletes to a certain level. Braking capability will be retained by the rear brake circuit pedal feel will be degraded and pedal travel extended. Stopping distances will increase.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace both front brake hoses.
PARKING LIGHTS MAY NOT FUNCTION AS INTENDED
Front side lights when used as parking lights should remain illuminated until the battery is exhausted. On affected vehicles they may extinguish after a period of time.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and update the software.
LOSS OF VEHICLE STABILITY
The rear tyre may gradually deflate with an associated loss of vehicle stability due to poor sealing between the rear wheel and tyre.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the rear wheel.
POSSIBLE BRAKE FAILURE
The brake fluid in the front brake system could be contaminated. The contamination can cause the brake fluid to gel and / or corrosion to the master cylinder banjo bolt threads sufficiently severe to cause leakage or failure. If either of the conditions occur it will lead to a reduction in brake performance and increase the risk of a collision / incident.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to replace the banjo bolt brake fluid and where necessary the master cylinder.

VEHICLE MAY MOVE UNINTENDEDLY WHEN GEARS ARE ENGAGED
On affected vehicles the engine may crank by itself and run for a short period when the ignition key has been left in the ignition barrel in �OFF� position. This is due to abnormal wear of key cylinder trigger. If in gear the vehicle may move unintentionally
Replace the ignition key cylinder on affected vehicles
LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL
A fail safe clip on the steering column may have become dislodged during the assembly process. As a result the column may not have been correctly assembled. Over a period of time and under certain conditions the column may work loose and disconnect causing a loss of steering.
On affected vehicles inspect column and where necessary replace the column shaft.
OIL MAY LEAK
On certain diesel 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.
