RSPV/2015/007 · 1 Feb 2016
1 Feb 2016Defect
The glue used to fix the high top to the base vehicle overtime loses adherence. This may not be evident to the driver and water may cause none visible corrosion and could affect interior fittings. In the worst case scenario the high top could detach.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and fit a new high top moulding with a new glue product. Where necessary correct any corrosion issues.

7 Feb 2008Defect
It has been identified that due to incorrect routing of the auxiliary battery cable the possibility exists that it may chafe against the handbrake cable. In this situation arcing out may occur at the rear offside brake pipe which can result in loss of brake hydraulic fluid.
