Rappels

En recours, faute de mieux : publiés par la DVSA depuis janvier 1992, en anglais, sans fiche RappelConso. La même campagne a souvent eu lieu en France, sans qu'on puisse le vérifier : à lire si le vendeur ou le garage en parle.

• Moteurfabriquées de juin 2010 à décembre 2014

  The engine cylinder head may crack. Localized overheating of the engine cylinder head may cause the cylinder head to crack.This may cause a pressurized oil leak which in extreme circumstances could result in a fire in the engine compartment. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Circuit électriquefabriquées de juillet 2004 à avril 2007

  Fire may occur. Engineering investigations have identified that vehicles operated in countries which have high road salt usage during winter months may experience an increased risk of corrosion build up. In extreme cases the corrosion can propagate into the electronic circuits and result in overheating. In rare cases the overheating may be sufficient to ignite the module and surrounding wiring and components. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Moteurfabriquées de février 2004 à janvier 2007

  Risk of fire. Due to high road salt usage in winter the engine cooling fan module may suffer from corrosion and may overheat and ignite. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Circuit électriquefabriquées de septembre 2006 à octobre 2007 (petite série)

  Possibility of fire. It has been identified that a batch of vehicles converted by SVP have been fitted with a split charging system the relays of which may not be to specification and could subsequently fail. This can result in wiring loom damage and the possibility of a fire. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Freinsfabriquées de novembre 2008 à mars 2009

  Hard brake pedal may occur during engine warm up. During engine warm up it is possible that the non return valve within the vacuum pump may stick. It is possible that if sufficient brake applications are made before the valve releases the vacuum stored within the brake booster will be used up and a hard brake pedal and longer stopping distances may result.

• Directionfabriquées d'avril 2008 à mai 2008

  Failure of power steering hose could result in an engine bay fire. It has been identified that a batch of vehicles may have been fitted with section of power assisted steering hose that is not to specification. This could result in premature failure of the hose with loss of steering assistance and in extreme cases the possibility of an engine bay fire occasioned by escaping hydraulic fluid coming into contact with hot components.

• Roues, essieux et châssisfabriquées de février 2007 à avril 2007

  Rear hub bolt may become loose. The rear hub retaining bolts may become loose because some bolts are not to the required specification. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Freinsfabriquées d'août 2005 à décembre 2006

  In low ambient temperature hard brake pedal may occur. Hard brake pedal may occur in low ambient temperatures which is caused by a non return valve in the vacuum pump sticking. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Circuit électriquefabriquées d'avril 2003 à mars 2005

  Wiper motor may fail and overheat. Water may enter the wiper motor via the wiper arm spindle. If the water contains salt it is possible that an electrical short circuit can cause the wiper to fail. In extreme cases the short circuit can result in the wiper assembly overheating. The increased temperature can be high enough to melt the trim components in the area of the motor assembly.

• Circuit de carburantfabriquées de juillet 2004 à février 2005

  Fuel return pipe leak. The fuel return pipe is not specification and will degrade. This could lead to seapage of fuel. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA
