SUSPENSION TURRET MAY FAIL
The suspension turret panel may fail due to inadequate welding being applied at the factory.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to apply further weld to the nearside inner wing suspension turret.
LOSS OF CONTROL
The rear axle may fail which will result in loss of vehicle control.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to fit an upgraded rear axle.
FIRE MAY OCCUR
An incorrect cable duct retaining bolt has been fitted. In the event of a crash the cable duct may detach at least partially from the engine. In this situation it is more likely that a short circuit of the unfastened starter/alternator line may occur.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the mounting bolt and fix the starter wiring in place.
THROTTLE MAY NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY
The frame of the air filter body may lift out of position and allow debris to bypass the air filter box and cause the throttle to remain in the open position.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to replace the air filter frame.
AXLE WELD MAY FAIL
Welds on the axle that retain the cast arms for the suspension mounting might not be to specification and if they fail could cause loss of forward motion and directional control.
Recall the trailers that are likely to be affected to replace the axles.

Welds on the axle that retain the cast arms for the suspension mounting might not be to specification and if they fail could cause loss of forward motion and directional control.
Recall the trailers that are likely to be affected to replace the axles.
BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL
The footbrake pedal is connected to the master cylinder via the brake pedal pin. It is possible that the retaining clip/locking pin that locks the footbrake pedal pin may not have been installed. If this is the case it is possible that the brake pedal pin may become detached. This will result in an increase in pedal travel and a corresponding increase in stopping distance.
Recall all affected vehicle and check for presence of retaining clip/locking pin. If found to be missing a new clip/pin will be installed.
BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE AFFECTED
It has been identified that the possibility exists that the front brakes hoses may become disconnected resulting in a loss of brake hydraulic fluid and a reduction in braking efficiency.
Recalled vehicles will have both front brake hoses replaced.

If this is the case it is possible that the brake pedal pin may become detached. This will result in an increase in pedal travel and a corresponding increase in stopping distance.
Recall all affected vehicle and check for presence of retaining clip/locking pin. If found to be missing a new clip/pin will be installed.
FUEL MAY ESCAPE
The engine fuel injector pipes may leak fuel as they do not conform to specification.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the fuel injector pipes with ones that do conform to specification.
FUEL PIPES MAY LEAK
The fuel supply lines may not be correctly routed under the vehicle and may contact the heat shield. Should this occur it can result in chaffing of the fuel pipe which can cause a leak.
Recall the affected vehicles and fit additional securing fixings.
FRONT BRAKE PIPES MAY LEAK.
The front brake pipes may leak brake fluid which can be noticed in the first instance by seepage of brake fluid from the front hose/s and a lowering of the fluid level in the reservoir. The next stage of failure would be a spongy feeling to the brake control and dripping fluid from the brake hoses. If all the previous indicators have not been noted and rectified the brakes will eventually not apply.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to check which brake hoses are fitted and if not the latest version fit new brake hoses.

STEERING TRAVEL MAY BE INHIBITED.
It is possible for the threaded fasteners for the fuel tank to work loose and fall to a position where they can inhibit the steering travel. If this happens the directional control will only be affected during low speed manoeuvring.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to inspect and on the machines that are affected refit the fastenings of the front fuel tank mounts after coating with a thread locking compound.
LOSS OF BRAKING EFFICIENCY.
Over a period of time it is possible for the front brake hoses to deteriorate through contact with other components. If left for some time it is possible that the brake hoses will leak fluid and there to be a loss of braking efficiency.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace both the front brake flexi hoses.
FUEL MAY LEAK
The fuel tank filler neck may crack and allow fuel to leak.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the fuel tank filler neck.
BRAKES MAY NOT PERFORM CORRECTLY
The brake master cylinder on some models fitted with ESP may not be to specification and the result could be longer than expected stopping distances.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the brake master cylinder and where necessary replace the master cylinder.
FIRE MAY OCCUR
It has been identified that the fleece filter insert of the engine oil separator may become obstructed with dirt particles. It is therefore possible that an increase in pressure within the crankcase may occur with the result that oil could escape onto hot engine parts. Should this occur a fire may ensue.
Recalled vehicles will have the original oil filter replaced with one of a cyclone type.
AIRBAG MAY MALFUNCTION
The position of the airbag electronic control unit (ECU) leaves it susceptible to water damage which may cause the airbag to malfunction.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit a bracket and reposition the ECU.
GEARBOX MAY JAM
A section of the gear shift mechanism may over time become loose and cause the mechanism to become jammed. If this was to occur it might not be possible to change gear or select neutral.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check that the ball joint for the gear selector is properly secured.
