ENGINE MAY STALL
It has been identified that during assembly the bank angle sensor bolts were not tightened correctly. Should the bank angle sensor become loose it may cause the engine to stall.
Recalled machines will have the bank angle sensor bolts checked and re-tightened as necessary.
GEARBOX SHIELD MAY OVERHEAT
It is possible for the gearbox noise shield to come in contact with a high temperature heat source such as the exhaust pipe. This could under special driving conditions lead to smoke and glow from the gearbox noise shield. There will be no fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the gearbox noise shield.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the gearbox noise shield.
WINDSCREEN WIPERS MAY FAIL
It has been identified that on subject vehicles the windscreen wiper mechanism has not been manufactured to specification. As a result in time the windscreen wipers could fail.
Recalled vehicles will have the windscreen wiper mechanism replaced.
SEAT BELT MAY FAIL
Bolts of the wrong specification have been fitted to the forward facing bed box. In extreme circumstances it is possible that the seat belt mounting could detach from the chassis.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit bolts of the correct specification to the forward facing bed box.
BABY CAR SEAT HARNESS STRAP MAY BECOME UNTHREADED
It has been identified that the seat may be defective because the harness may become unthreaded from the adjuster (following removal for cleaning etc) with the possibility that the strap may be re-threaded incorrectly due to the absence of additional webbing thickness designed to prevent un- threading. Under theses circumstances the restraint characteristics of the seat could be compromised.
Owners of the subject seats will be requested to surrender them to the supplying store at which time a full refund will be given.
BATTERY CABLES COULD SHORT CIRCUIT AND CAUSE A FIRE.
It has been identified that the electrical cables adjacent to the battery have not been properly secured in their respective fuse holders. This may result in the cables working loose with the attendant risk of a short circuit and a fire.
Recalled vehicles will have the cables checked for security within their fuse holders and be replaced if this is not the case.

FRONT SUSPENSION WISHBONE COULD BECOME LOOSE
The tightening torque for the front suspension wishbone mounting bolts has proved insufficient. This can lead to loosening represented by abnormal noise
Recall affected vehicles and retorque front suspension wishbone bolts

HYDRAULIC BRAKE LINES MAY CORRODE.
It has been identified that incorrect hoses have been installed in the brake lines. This can result in the hose corroding at a faster rate than if the correct specification hose had been used.
Recalled vehicles will be fitted with brake hoses of the correct specification.

INSECURE WIRING MAY RESULT IN POWER FAILURE
It has been identified that due to the possibility of wiring insecurity at the fuse box loss of voltage to the secondary electrical circuits may ensue.
Recalled vehicles will have the subject wiring inspected and rectified as necessary.
EBS MAY NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY UNDER BRAKING
It has been identified that a problem exists with the brake modules fitted to EBS 5 braking systems. The modules affected are front and rear axle pressure controls additionally the trailer control. It is reported that the fault affects service brake operation in that it could initiate braking on one side more than the other with the possibility of the vehicle veering to one side. Should this happen an accident might ensue.
Recalled vehicles will have the EBS control modules re-programmed as necessary.

WINDOW MAY DETACH
It has been identified that the possibility exists that the bonding between the inner and outer windows may become loose due to exposure to ultra violet light. In the worst case this could result in the window detaching from the vehicle.
As a preventative measure recalled vehicles will have the windows mechanically fixed by means of a specially developed screw system.
