POSSIBLE INADVERTENT APPLICATION OF PARKING BRAKE
A steel ball used to seal an aperture in the parking brake control valve may become displaced and could result in inadvertent application of the parking brake.
The affected vehicles are being recalled to be inspected for the make of parking brake valve fitted. A securing clamp will be fitted to all the affected units to prevent displacement of the ball.
ERRATIC THROTTLE OPERATION
Throttle action may become erratic due to inadequate lubrication.
Recall the potentially affected machines disconnect throttle linkage from throttle body lever clean and examine linkage. Lubricate and reassemble. Check for freedom and smoothness of operation.

POSSIBLE REDUCTION IN BRAKE SERVO ASSISTANCE
On batteries fitted with non-watertight caps rainwater from the windscreen may run into the battery and result in a leakage of battery contents. This leakage may damage the adjacent fabric reinforced rubber brake servo pipe and reduce or cancel the servo assistance available when braking.
Affected vehicles are being recalled to have a cover fitted to the battery and checking of the brake servo pipe for damage.
LOSS OF ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONS
The main underbonnet harness may become damaged through chafing on the scuttle panel. This could result in stalling and loss of electrical functions.
Affected vehicles are being recalled for the fitment of a protective sleeve to the main wiring harness to prevent chaffing.
INVOLUNTARY OPERATION OF AIR BAG
Involuntary operation of the air bag may occur as a result of an intermittent electrical fault.
Recall the affected vehicles for the fitment of a safety fuse link in the air bag circuit.

Recall the affected vehicles for the fitment of a safety fuse link in the air bag circuit.
LEAKAGE AT REAR AXLE HOSE CONNECTIONS
Some models fitted with pneumatic suspension are equipped with rotatable connectors on the rear axle brake hose connections. These connectors may leak with an adverse effect on braking performance.
Recall the affected vehicles for inspection of the connector type fitted and where necessary revise to non-rotatable connectors
MALFUNCTION OF AIR BAG
The wiring to the air bag control unit can chafe on the brake/clutch lever. This may lead to malfunction of the air bag unit.
Affected vehicles are being recalled to have the air bag wiring re-routed and fixed to the bulkhead. Any wiring found to be damaged will be replaced or repaired.
LOSS OF BRAKING EFFICIENCY
A defective retaining clip may allow the throttle cable to chafe against certain rigid brake pipes. This could damage the pipes and result in a reduction in braking efficiency.
Affected vehicles are being recalled to have the subject retaining clip replaced with a modified version.

Affected vehicles are being recalled to have the subject retaining clip replaced with a modified version.
FAILURE OF BRAKE SERVO
As a result of incorrect material specification the brake servo diaphragm may fail. This would result in extra pedal effort and an increase in stopping distance.
Affected vehicles are being recalled to have the brake servo replaced with a quality assured unit.
INCORRECT BRAKE COMPENSATOR
An incorrect load sensitive rear brake compensator may have been fitted to some boxer vehicles.
Potentially affected vehicles are being recalled to have the compensator examined. Vehicles equipped with an incorrect unit will have this replaced with the correct type.
CRACKING IN TYRE TREAD/SIDEWALL
There have been instances of cracking between the tread and sidewall of some tyres.
Cooper-Avon are contacting all current end users of the vehicles to which theses tyres may have been fitted. Where it is established that any of the subject tyres are still on the vehicle the owner is being directed to an approved local tyre dealer for inspection of the tyres and replacement of any which fall within the affected range.
UNSCHEDULED ACTIVATION OF STARTER MOTOR WHEN IN MOTION
The starter motor may be accidentally activated as a result of the ignition switch wires shorting on the loom connector and pneumatic switch mounting plates on the steering column.
Affected vehicles are being recalled for the fitment of clips/tie wraps and protective trim on the steering column/pneumatic switch plate to secure and protect the wiring loom.
BRAKE PIPE DAMAGE
On certain vehicles it is possible that the power steering high pressure hose may contact the offside front rigid brake pipe. This could result in damage to the brake pipe with a resultant reduction in braking efficiency.
Affected vehicles are being recalled for a check on the positioning of the pipes involved and adjustment of the pipe clearance where necessary.
FAILURE OF PARKING BRAKE CABLE
Insufficient diameter of the handbrake cable may cause the handbrake to fail prematurely.
Affected vehicles are being recalled to have the handbrake cable replaced with a modified larger diameter version.
POSSIBLE INADVERTENT APPLICATION OF PARKING BRAKE
A steel ball used to seal an aperture in the parking brake control valve may become displaced and could result in inadvertent application of the parking brake.
The affected vehicles are being recalled to be inspected for the make of parking brake valve fitted. A securing clamp will be fitted to all the affected units to prevent displacement of the ball.

Affected vehicles are being recalled to have the air bag wiring re-routed and fixed to the bulkhead. Any wiring found to be damaged will be replaced or repaired.
POSSIBLE FUEL LEAKAGE
The fuel line retaining nuts may split after tightening if the recommended torque has been exceeded. This can cause leakage of fuel with an attendant risk of fire. This campaign augments recall R1997/55 but applies only to cars built after the launch of that campaign.
Affected vehicles are being recalled for replacement of the fuel lines.
POSSIBLE FUEL LEAK
An incorrectly positioned water hose retaining clamp may chafe on a fuel hose. This can damage the hose and result in leakage of fuel.
Affected vehicles are being recalled to have the hose clamp repositioned with the clamp screw clear of the fuel hose.
POSSIBLE TRANSMISSION LOCK-UP
Some machines may have been fitted with an incorrectly machined fourth gear dog. This could cause breakage of the gear dog and result in lock up of the transmission.
Affected machines are being recalled to have a check carried out on the machining of the fourth gear dog. Where this is found to be of the incorrect type the appropriate gears will be replaced.
POSSIBLE DETACHMENT OF ROOF HATCH
The roof emergency escape hatch may vibrate loose from it's retaining catches and in very windy conditions could detach from the vehicle.
Affected vehicles are being recalled for the fitment of a modified pin and screw to the roof hatch mechanism and a check on the operation of the hatch operating handle. Where necessary handles will be replaced with longer versions.
