WHEEL BEARINGS FITTED TO THE SECOND AXLE MAY FAIL
It has been identified that a number of repairs have been carried out on the hub seals where the bearings have not been replaced. This may lead to bearing failure.
Recall the vehicles to replace the full set of wheel bearings and seals to prevent a possible bearing failure.

SIDE AIRBAG WIRING INCORRECTLY CONNECTED
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) side airbag wires were installed in the incorrect connector which results in the opposite side airbag deploying under certain crash conditions
Recall affected vehicles and relocate wires in the correct ORC connector
RISK OF FIRE
A 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.
SEAT MAY DETACH
It has been identified that there is the possibility in the event of an impact the potential insecurity of the front right hand seat base mounting may result in the seat detaching from the floor thus affecting occupant safety.
Recalled vehicles will have the right hand front seat base brackets welded to the correct specification.
RIGHT FRONT SEAT WELD MAY NOT BE TO SPECIFICATION
The welding to the right hand front single seat may not be to specification. In the event of an accident the right hand front seat may separate from the floor panel.
Recall the likely to be affected vehicles to add two welding seams on each rear bracket on the right hand front seat pedestal.
FUEL MAY LEAK
It has been identified that due to an engineering fault in production a dimensional variation has occurred to the fuel pump seating. This may result in a possible fuel leak from the pump seating area whilst the vehicle is being fuelled.
Recalled vehicles will have the fuel pump gasket and O replaced.
RISK OF FIRE - SHORT CIRCUIT MAY OCCUR
The battery positive cable may have been incorrectly assembled and may interfere with the battery box resulting in a short circuit.
Recall affected machines and fit new battery cable.
FIRE MAY OCCUR
It has been identified that the grid heaters fitted to vehicles with EEV emission standard may suffer malfunctions or failures irrespective of the vehicles being in motion or parked. Unless addressed there is a risk of current leakage in the control head of the grid heater which could result in a short circuit. Should this occur the casting compound could melt and create a smouldering fire.
As a temporary measure the grid heater will be deactivated.
VEHICLE EXTERIOR LIGHTS MAY FAIL WITHOUT WARNING
The lighting management system may incorrectly detect the position of the exterior lighting control switch. This may cause the exterior light to switch off without warning.
Recall all affected vehicles and install a new version of the exterior lighting management software to the vehicle.
BRAKE LIGHTS MAY BECOME INOPERATIVE
It has been identified that on certain Sonata models the stop lamp switch may fail. Should this occur the brake lights may fail to function or could flash continuously. It is also possible that the electronic stability programme may fail to function or not operate correctly. Additionally in the case of vehicles fitted with automatic transmission and a transmission lock it may not be possible to move the gear selection lever from park to drive.
Recalled vehicles will have the stop lamp switch replaced.
VEHICLE EXTERIOR LIGHTS MAY FAIL WITHOUT WARNING
The lighting management system may incorrectly detect the position of the exterior lighting control switch. This may cause the exterior light to switch off without warning.
Recall all affected vehicles and install a new version of the exterior lighting management software to the vehicle.
FUEL MAY LEAK
Fuel may leak from the low pressure fuel return pipe as a result of vibration causing the pipe to crack.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the fuel return pipe for one of a modified type.
TAILGATE MAY NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY
It has been identified that the possibility exists that the mounting ball on both tailgate support struts may rotate when the tailgate is opened or closed. Should one of the support struts dislocate the tailgate may not remain in the open position.
Recalled vehicles will have the mounting ball joints on the tailgate support struts replaced.
ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
The fuel transfer pipe in the fuel tank may be kinked or over inserted into the in-fuel tank delivery module.In either case fuel starvation may occur which leads to engine stumble cut out and the inability to restart.
Recall affected vehicles shorten fuel transfer pipe and reinsert in alternative hole in fuel delivery module.
GEARBOX MAY NOT ENGAGE OR SHIFT GEARS AS INTENDED
It has been identified that due to internal leakage the gearbox hydraulic control module may not be able to engage or shift gears as intended.
Recalled vehicles will have the gearbox replaced.
