Showing 10426–10450 of 15,570 recalls.
BRAKE FLUID MAY LEAK
The left hand front brake pipe may not be fully secure which could lead to the brake pipe chafing on the EGR pipe. If this occurs and remains unseen the damage could result in loss of brake fluid and the attendant loss of braking efficiency.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace and correctly secure the left hand front brake pipe.
HANDLEBAR MAY DETACH
Possible bad weld joint at the handlebar clamping plate. The weld joint could break leading to loss of steering.
Immediate fitting of reinforcement brackets
SIDE STAND MAY FAIL
The threaded fasteners connecting the side stand to the frame may come loose and allow the side stand to detach/collapse.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the original threaded fasteners with ones that are longer and have Pre-coating applied to all the thread.
FRONT SIDE PANELS MAY WORK LOOSE
It is possible that the fastenings for the front side panels could at high speeds work loose and allow the panels to detach from the machine.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the fastenings with those of a modified type.
AIR BAG MAY DEPLOY WITHOUT WARNING
Due to poor maintenance of the coolant the heater matrix may leak coolant into the air bag computer. The water ingress could cause a short circuit which in the worst case could cause the air bag to deploy.
Installation of a shield to protect the ECU from leaking coolant. If the heater matrix shows signs of corrosion then this will be replaced.
ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
Cracks in the charge air hose may possibly occur. This may subsequently lead to the engine switching to limp-home mode. In rare individual cases the engine shutting off cannot be ruled out.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the charge air hose.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the charge air hose.
SHOCK ABSORBER MOUNTING MAY FAIL
Some vehicles of the Eurocargo Euro 3 and MY2008 range may be subject to breakage of the rear shock absorber bottom support when used in demanding work situations. This will result in failed operation of the shock absorber.
To replace the defective rear shock absorber bottom support bracket within the listed chassis range with support brackets of correct conformity.
REAR BRAKE CALLIPER MOUNTING BOLT COULD WORK LOOSE
The tightening torque of the rear brake calliper mounting bolts could be incorrect. This incorrect tightening torque may in very rare cases eventually lead to the slackening of the bolt and an increase in noise during braking
Replace the bolts and tighten to the correct torque
REAR SUSPENSION MAY FAIL
Under extreme conditions it is possible that the rear suspension top arm may fail.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace the nearside and offside rear suspension top arms.
REAR BRAKE CALLIPER MOUNTING BOLT COULD WORK LOOSE
The tightening torque of the rear brake calliper mounting bolts could be incorrect. This incorrect tightening torque may in very rare cases eventually lead to the slackening of the bolt and an increase in noise during braking
Replace the bolts and tighten to the correct torque
BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE COMPROMISED
Due to continuous quality control it has shown on a limited number of vehicles it may be necessary to replace a component of the brake valve EBS2 in order to ensure perfect efficiency of the braking system.Failure to replace the component described could compromise the correct operation of the braking system.
Replacement of the relay piston / sealing ring on the brake value of the EBS2 (CBU) tractor.
A FRAME RETAINING SCREWS MAY BE INCORRECTLY TORQUED
On a number of vehicles the torque setting value of the retaining screws of the A frame guide rod joint to the axle could be wrong.
Checks to be carried out to ensure that the correct torque is applied.

Replacement of the relay piston / sealing ring on the brake value of the EBS2 (CBU) tractor.
AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY CORRECTLY
During production monitoring Daimler AG became aware that in isolated cases on the E-Class coupe the air of the right windowbag may be able to escape more quickly than intended in the event that this is activated in an accident. In the event of a collision and in extreme cases the strict internal safety requirements of Daimler AG may not be adhered to.
Replace the right windowbag as a precautionary measure.
HANDBRAKE MAY NOT PERFORM CORRECTLY
On the affected vehicles the fixing of the handbrake cable support stop may not be to specification which could cause long term loss of handbrake efficiency.
The strengthening of the fixing of the handbrake cable support stop on the chassis. This operation will avoid any long term loss of handbrake efficiency.
BRAKING ASSISTANCE MAY BE REDUCED
One of the vacuum hose unions in the braking system may not be to specification. This could cause a reduction in braking assistance.
Check and if necessary replace the hose.
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL COULD BE COMPROMISED
Bolts of the trapezoidal control arms on the front axle and trailing axle of the affected vehicles could break as a result of corrosion. This could lead to instability and the directional control to be compromised.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the bolts of the trapezoidal arm seal the repair area and apply corrosion protection.
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL COULD BE COMPROMISED
Bolts of the trapezoidal control arms on the front axle and trailing axle of the affected vehicles could break as a result of corrosion. This could lead to instability and the directional control to be compromised.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the bolts of the trapezoidal arm seal the repair area and apply corrosion protection.
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL COULD BE COMPROMISED
Bolts of the trapezoidal control arms on the front axle and trailing axle of the affected vehicles could break as a result of corrosion. This could lead to instability and the directional control to be compromised.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the bolts of the trapezoidal arm seal the repair area and apply corrosion protection.
BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE COMPROMISED
Foaming of the brake fluid may occur in the brake fluid reservoir of the front brake. It is therefore possible that air can then enter the front braking system and adversely affect the performance of the front brake.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to fit a screen into the brake fluid reservoir.
BRAKING ASSISTANCE MAY BE REDUCED
One of the vacuum hose unions in the braking system may not be to specification. This could cause a reduction in braking assistance.
Check and if necessary replace the hose.
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL COULD BE COMPROMISED
Bolts of the trapezoidal control arms on the front axle and trailing axle of the affected vehicles could break as a result of corrosion. This could lead to instability and the directional control to be compromised.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the bolts of the trapezoidal arm seal the repair area and apply corrosion protection.
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL MAY BE LOST
Lock nuts fitted to the ball heads on the steering drag link and track rod ball joints may have insufficient securing function. It is possible that the nuts might loosen and allow the steering joints to separate and the directional control to be compromised.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the affected lock nuts
