Showing 11251–11275 of 15,570 recalls.
FRONT PASSENGER SEAT COULD MOVE WITHOUT WARNING.
The fixing bolts of the front passenger seat rails to seat frame may fail and leave the seat insecure. In the event of an accident this could lessen the effectiveness of the seat belt.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the front passenger seat rails to seat frame fixing bolts.

SPEEDOMETER READING IS INCORRECT
The speedometers of the affected machines are incorrectly calibrated and will read 30% less than the speed they are actually travelling.
The recalled machines will have the speedometer re-calibrated.
OVEN DOOR MAY NOT BE TEMPERED CORRECTLY
Because the glass fitted to the oven door was not correctly treated the glass if broken will break into large pieces instead of small pieces. It is thought that the larger shards are potentially dangerous.
Affected ovens will have the doors replaced.

POSSIBLE REDUCTION IN BRAKE SERVO ASSISTANCE
It is possible that engine oil can enter the brake servo via the brake vacuum pump and vacuum hose. If this occurs it could damage the brake servo membrane which may leak so causing a reduction in braking assistance and a requirement to apply increased pedal force to achieve the same braking efficiency.
Recall all affected vehicles for the fitment of a modified servo hose. In addition the checking of the brake servo for contamination and replacement if required.

FIRE MAY OCCUR
Air-conditioning system may malfunction due to its fuse block being too weak. This could result in the risk of electrical current leak in the fuse block which could result in a short circuit and in extreme cases a risk of fire.
Fitment of a modified fuse block.
BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER MAY FAIL.
If the incorrect brake fluid is used in the brake system it is possible that the rear seal can become dry and curl in its recess due to the operation of the piston. This can result in a brake fluid leak which will when the fluid reaches a low level illuminate the brake fluid low warning light on the dash.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace the rear seal with an improved one.
SIDEWALL MAY DEFORM
Deformation in the tyre tread or sidewall. If the tyre is left in service the reinforcing structure may degrade further eventually resulting in rapid deflation.
Manufacturer will replace the defective tyre.

STEERING BOX MAY WORK LOOSE
It is possible that the steering box to mounting bracket bolts maybe too long which will cause the bolts bottoming out. Should this occur it can result in the steering box working loose and if not rectified possible detachment of the steering box.
Recall all affected vehicle and check the steering box mounting bolts if it is found that the incorrect bolts have been fitted then the steering box will be removed and modified to accept the correct bolts and refitted using the correct bolts.
ENGINE MAY STALL OR WILL NOT RESTART.
Due to the inflexibility of the material of the fuel pump wiring harness it is possible that as a result of internal movement of the fuel suction plate the connector terminal may fail. This could cause stalling of the vehicle or impossible to restart.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace the fuel pump wiring harness.
ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP MAY FAIL
Due to a manufacturing defect which causes premature wear of the fuel pump commutator it is possible that the engine might cut out whilst driving.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the fuel pump.
ENGINE SPEED MAY INCREASE WITHOUT WARNING.
It is possible that the engine oil level may rise above its maximum level due to overfilling and/or dilution by fuel. This may result in the engine speed being maintained or possibly increased after the throttle pedal has been released. In extreme cases it is possible that the engine may continue to run after it has been switched off.
Recall all affected vehicles and carry out an Engine Control Module software upgrade and adjust the engine oil. The new ECM upgrade will improve adaption of different blends of fuel and include a dashboard text warning message if the oil level reaches too high a level.

ENGINE MAY FAIL
Due to incorrect machining it is possible that the crankshaft is not to the correct specification which can lead to insufficient lubrication of the crankshaft and subsequent engine failure.
Recall all affected vehicles and replace the engine.
