    SHORT CIRCUIT - FIRE MAY OCCUR

    Defect

    It has been identified that on vehicles fitted with a supplementary cabin heater the unit may contain a faulty valve which links the heater to the climate control. The valve in question may become clogged which could lead to poor water drainage and in extreme cases a short circuit. Should sufficient heat be generated by the short circuit a fire behind the instrument panel below the radio may occur.

    Remedy

    Recalled vehicles will have the subject valve replaced.

    BRAKE PEDAL ASSIST FUNCTION MAY NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY

    Defect

    Due to an incorrect manufacturing process the resin film within the brake assist accumulator may become damaged. If use continues in this condition a crack in the diaphragm may occur resulting in the depletion of the nitrogen gas resulting in (1) delay of the brake assist function under rapid braking. (2) An increase in the required brake pedal effort when the engine is started following a long period with the engine stopped.

    Remedy

    Recalled vehicles will have the accumulator checked to identify whether or not it is one within the affected batch. Should this be the case the accumulator will be replaced with one of a modified type.

    POSSIBLE LOSS OF CONTROL DUE TO REAR BRAKE LOCK UP.

    Defect

    It has been identified that under certain riding conditions a small stone thrown up from the road surface may become trapped between the rear brake master cylinder operating rod and the rear brake pedal. This can prevent the rear brake from fully releasing causing it to drag and overheat. This eventually can cause the rear wheel to lock resulting in possible loss of control.

    Remedy

    Recalled machines will be fitted with a brake pedal protective cover.
