Defect

The fuel heating device integrated in to the diesel fuel filter cover may be defective and allow heat to build up within the electrical supply connector causing the cover to distort and air to enter the fuel circuit. This could make the vehicles difficult to start and a warning light will be illuminated on the dash board. The engine could be difficult or not possible to start. In the worst cases a diesel fuel leak could eventually appear.

Remedy

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the fuel heater cover. Additionally the electrical connector will be inspected and where necessary replaced.

Defect

The steering column link bolt which retains the steering wheel to the steering column may not have been tighten to the correct specification. This can result in a gradual increase in movement between the steering wheel and shaft with an associated rattle. This should identify the issue to the driver however if the driver does not heed this warning then the steering control of the vehicle could be reduced.

Remedy

Recall all affected vehicles to check and if required re-torque the steering column link bolt.

Defect

Some tyres may have suffered superficial damage when the vehicle was being transported. The front Left hand tyre may have localised damage on the tread or the inner side. The tyre may rip and deflate.

Remedy

Carry out a visual check of the condition of the tyre in the affected areas and replace the tyre if necessary.

Defect

It is possible that the wiring harness for the power assisted steering motor may come in contact with other components in the engine bay. Should this occur then it is possible that the power steering assistance on this large vehicle may become affected.

Remedy

Recall affected vehicles and fit protection to the wiring harness.

Defect

In very rare circumstances the vacuum pump one way valve may not function correctly which could affect the level of braking assistance.

Remedy

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the brake vacuum pump one way valve.

Defect

It has been identified that the position of the exterior lighting control ring may not be detected by the lighting management system and the lights may switch off without warning.

Remedy

Recalled vehicles will have the lighting management software updated.

Defect

The threaded portion of the brake linkage rod in the brake control system may not be to conformity. This could result in a reduction of braking efficiency.

Remedy

Recall affected vehicles to check rod and replace if found not to meet conformity.

Defect

The lighting management system may incorrectly detect the position of the exterior lighting control switch. This may cause the exterior light to switch off without warning.

Remedy

Recall all affected vehicles and install a new version of the exterior lighting management software to the vehicle.

Defect

It has been identified that a slight amount of play in the diesel fuel return pipe mountings on certain vehicles may over time lead to abrasion and wear of the pipe.

Remedy

Recalled vehicles will have the subject clips checked and the pipe secured.

Defect

It has been identified that on the specified vehicles a fault may develop with the brake vacuum pump. This can result in hardening of the brake pedal with an attendant loss of braking efficiency.

Remedy

Recalled vehicles will have the vacuum pump replaced.

Defect

The seat belt locking action may not be as fast as it is designed to be.

Remedy

Recall the vehicles that may be affected to check the date of manufacture of the seat belts and where necessary replace the seat belts.

Defect

Braking assistance could be adversely by freezing of moisture that may accumulate in the vacuum circuit.

Remedy

Recall the vehicles that may be affected and fit a separate air vent complete with filter to each electro valve fitted to the vacuum circuit.

Defect

Due to a potential fault in the engine management system an internal engine fuel leak via the injectors may occur following switching off. This would result in the engine failing to restart due to excess fuel being present in the inlet manifold or cylinders.

Remedy

To address the issue recalled vehicles will receive an engine management download.

Defect

Under certain circumstances a brake pipe may chafe on the turbo charger air intake securing clip. In extreme situations the wear caused could lead to leakage within a brake circuit and the illumination of the red brake warning light.

Remedy

Recalled vehicles will be checked for the chafe condition and if necessary the turbo air intake securing clip will be relocated. The affected brake pipe will also be changed if it displays any sign of wear.

Defect

Some cases have been found where inadequate drainage of water condensing from the air conditioning system has caused water to run under the carpet. This in turn may lead to the airbag warning light coming on or in extreme cases lead to airbag systems malfunctioning.

Remedy

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected for modification of the drainage tube and the anti return valve.

Defect

The original engine software may cause erratic operation of the motorised throttle body. This could in rare extreme cases cause the throttle stop to break. This will cause the engine to revert to limp home mode which possible may cause a reduction in braking assistance.

Remedy

Install updated software in the engine ECU.

Defect

There is a possibility of defective components in the heater blower which could cause a short circuit and loss of ventilation of the passenger compartment and in an extreme condition could set fire to the wiring harness.

Remedy

Recall affected vehicles and replace heater blower module

Defect

There is a possibility that water may ingress into the airbag electronic control unit (ECU) compartment. This may cause premature deployment of the airbag.

Remedy

Seal the airbag ECU compartment.

Defect

There is a possibility that the electric sliding doors may open whilst the vehicle is in motion.

Remedy

Fit a replacement electronic control unit to the door.

Defect

Rear bench seat in third row may not lock in place and tip forward during harsh deceleration

Remedy

Recall affected vehicles and modify routing of check strap.
