BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE AFFECTED
The Actia instrument cluster the dash has been programmed with the incorrect software. This may result in the driver not receiving any warnings regarding defects within the vehicles brake system as the software will not illuminate warning lights indicating brake system fault codes. This could in extreme cases result a reduction in braking efficiency.
Recall all affected vehicles and reprogram the Actia instrument cluster the dash.
FIRE MAY OCCUR
On vehicles fitted with the General Motors L18 petrol/gasoline engine it is possible the retaining clip for the fuel rail pulse damper may not have been correctly heat treated. This could result in the retaining clip fracturing without warning which will not retain the damper and allow pressurised fuel to spray onto the engine. If an ignition source is present it may cause an engine bay fire.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace the fuel rail damper retaining clip.

BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE AFFECTED
It is possible that the piston in the foot (Service) brake caliper (Bosch) may stick in the applied position. If this occurs then it is possible that the front brakes may overheat which could cause the brake fluid to boil and result in reduced braking efficiency.
Recall the affected vehicles and replace the caliper with a new Bosch unit.
ENGINE MAY LOOSE DRIVE AND POWER STEERING ASSISTANCE.
The auxiliary drive belt tensioner may fail. This can lead to loss of steering power assistance and a slight possibility of loss of drive should the drive belt or tensioner invade the cambelt area.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the auxiliary drive belt and tensioner.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the auxiliary drive belt and tensioner.
DRIVER MAY LOOSE CONTROL
Misalignment of the welding torch during the assembly of a single manufacturing run of shock absorbers could lead to the affected units rod and eye attachments to fail. Failure could occur without warning causing the vehicle to lose its load carrying ability on the affected corner which may cause drivers to lose control of their vehicles and a potential crash may occur. Drivers should not drive these vehicles until the shock absorbers have been replaced.
Replacement of the affected shock absorbers.

PANORAMIC ROOF GLASS MAY DETACH
There is a possibility that the panoramic roof glass might partially peel from the frame due to insufficient adhesion strength of the paint on the panoramic roof frame. In this condition the roof glass might separate from the frame which could lead to wind noise. If the vehicle is continuously operated the panoramic roof glass may detach from the frame.
Inspect and replace if needed.
REDUCED BRAKING PERFORMANCE
It is possible that the bolts that secure the two halves of the front wheel brake caliper have not been torqued to the correct specification. This could in extreme circumstances result in a loss of brake fluid and subsequent reduction of brake pressure which could lead to a reduction in braking performance.
Recall all affected machines to check and if required tighten the bolts to the correct torque specification.
FUEL MAY LEAK
On 2.0l Common Rail engines of a limited production period faulty material can cause leaks on the high pressure pipes during the service life of the vehicle.
Anti-vibration balance weights will be fitted on the high-pressure pipes.

ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
The use of incorrect torque wrenches for tightening a terminal may have damaged internal components in the Engine Electrical Power Supply Management Unit (BSM). This could result in the engine cutting out.
Recall all the affected vehicles and replace the engine BSM unit.
