2. ENGINE MAY STALL

   R/2015/003 · 11 Feb 2015

   11 Feb 2015

   Defect

   Due to a fault in the engine ECU software it is possible that the 4M41 engines in the Shogun will not learn the variations or age deterioration in injectors and be able to adjust the amount of fuel being injection accordingly. This inability to learn these values correctly can result in the engine emits an excessive amount of soot to the DPF which can block it. This can result in the engine stalling and not being able to restart.

   Remedy

   Recall all affected vehicles and reprogramme engine ECU software.

3. ENGINE MAY STALL

   R/2015/004 · 11 Feb 2015

   11 Feb 2015

   Defect

   Due to a high carbon build up the check ball seat of the timing chain tensioner can show premature wear. It is possible that the check ball may stick to the seat preventing the tensioner from functioning properly. This in turn will result in an un-tensioned timing chain which causes a rattling noise and in the worst cases the chain will break.

   Remedy

   Replace tensioner on all affected vehicles. Depending on outcome of further inspections the timing chain may also need to be replaced.

6. BRAKE PEDAL ASSIST FUNCTION MAY NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY

   R/2008/191 · 4 Feb 2009

   4 Feb 2009

   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.

7. DRIVE SHAFT SECURING NUTS MAY LOOSEN

   R/2008/004 · 7 Jan 2008

   7 Jan 2008

   Defect

   The front and rear propeller shafts and the right hand front drive shaft have been fitted with nuts of an incorrect specification. The concern could lead to vibration which if not attended to could lead to the detachment of a shaft and loss of drive.

   Remedy

   Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the nuts and washers fitted to the front and rear propeller shafts and the right hand front drive shaft.

8. DRIVE MAY BE LOST

   R/2007/103 · 17 Aug 2007

   17 Aug 2007

   Defect

   It has been identified that the possibility exists that a bolt welded to the gearshift lever may fracture. Should this occur the adjustment may loosen and the shift cable may move. This can result in a mismatch between the gear shift selector and the actual gear selected. In the worst case the bolt may break which can cause the control cable to become disconnected and drive to be lost.

   Remedy

   Affected vehicles will have the transmission shift lever replaced with a quality assured item.

9. STEERING CONTROL MAY BE LOST

   R/2007/074 · 11 Jun 2007

   11 Jun 2007

   Defect

   When used regularly in severe off road conditions the ball joint of the pitman arm may break resulting in loss of steering control.

   Remedy

   Recalled vehicles will be fitted with a modified pitman arm if this has not already been accomplished following a previous intervention.

10. Engine rpm may increase unexpectedly

    R/2003/163 · 12 Dec 2003

    12 Dec 2003

    Defect

    There is a possibility that due to improper operation when assembling the engine at production a crack occurred on the advance control lever of the cold start device on the injection pump.

    Remedy

    During specific vehicle usage there is a possibility that the engine rpm could increase if the cold start lever broke.

11. POSSIBLE LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL

    R/2001/158 · 26 Apr 2002

    26 Apr 2002

    Defect

    Under severe and extreme conditions where the vehicle is used mainly off-road in a wet muddy environment it is possible that the tapered section of the ball pin on the steering Pitman arm may break. This in the worst case could result in a loss of steering control.

    Remedy

    Recall the affected vehicles and replace the Pitman arm with a quality assured component.

12. POSSIBLE LOSS OF POWER ASSISTANCE TO BRAKES

    R/2001/129 · 29 Jan 2002

    29 Jan 2002

    Defect

    There is a possibility that the accumulator diaphragm in the Hydraulic Brake Booster (HBB) might be manufactured improperly. This may cause the nitrogen pressure in the accumulator to drop. The following two symptoms may result :- 1) The brake assist might be delayed in sudden hard braking. 2) Relatively large brake pedal loads might be required after long-term parking and first engine start since specific brake pressure takes time to accumulate.

    Remedy

    The Hydraulic Brake Booster nitrogen accumulator will be replaced with a modified one on all affected vehicles.

    27 Sep 2000

    Defect

    Brake fluid may seep from the front flexible brake hoses impairing the efficiency of one or both braking circuits.

    Remedy

    Recall the affected vehicles for replacement of both front flexible brake hoses.
