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.

• Roues, essieux et châssisfabriquées de décembre 2003 à avril 2006

  Axle shaft may detach. Excessive axle shaft end play which can be identified by excessive noise and changes in vehicle handling could possibly if not detected lead to detachment of the axle shaft retaining clip and result in the shaft 'walking out' of the axle. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Roues, essieux et châssisfabriquées d'octobre 2005 à avril 2007

  Front suspension strut to knuckle clamping bolt insufficient torque. It has been identified that the front suspension strut to knuckle clamping bolt torque might be insufficient. The possibility therefore exists that should the assembly move within it's mounting the tyre may contact the wheel arch. Additionally in the case of FWD vehicles the shock absorber could contact the driveshaft. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées en juillet 2006

  Possible partial detachment of front suspension lower arm.. It has been identified that a number of vehicles have been produced with front suspension lower arm bolts which may have been tightened to an incorrect torque. In this condition failure of a bolt may result in partial detachment of the arm from the subframe which could adversely affect the steering and stability control. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Airbagsfabriquées de février 2004 à novembre 2004 (petite série)

• Roues, essieux et châssisfabriquées de janvier 2000 à août 2001

  Front suspension ball joint circlip. Under conditions of excessively rough use such as driving over kerbs etc the front suspension ball joint taper pin may become loose in the suspension upright. If this occurs the secondary retaining circlip may be ineffective in preventing the complete detachment of the suspension upright from the track control arm. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA
