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.

  Rear right wheel arch protector may deform and rub against and damage brake hose. In conditions such as high speed and high vehicle loading the rear right wheel arch protector may contact the brake hose. Over time repeated contact could wear through the outer protective cover of the brake hose. This could damage the inner reinforcing braiding and in an extreme case wear a hole in the hose which could lead to brake fluid leakage. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Roues, essieux et châssisfabriquées de juillet 2013 à octobre 2014

  Towbar may detach. The bolted joints fixing the towbar kit to the chassis of the vehicle may loosen. In an extreme situation where the vehicle continues to be driven with loose bolted joints the towbar kit may detach from the vehicle. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées de février 2012 à mai 2012

  Possible loss of steering. It is possible that the steering wheel boss may not have been produced to the correct specification. If a higher than normal loading is applied to the steering wheel in its normal operation it is possible that the steering wheel boss may separate from the steering column. This can result in a loss of steering control. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Circuit de carburantfabriquées de septembre 2011 à janvier 2012

  Fuel may leak. The fuel filter hose connector may not be fully connected to the fuel filter. If the vehicle continues to be driven in this condition a fuel leak may occur or in extreme conditions the engine may stall. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées d'août 2010 à août 2011

  Power steering assistance may fail. It has been established that the casting for the heat sink on the Electric Power Steering (EPS) control unit may be out of specification. In extreme cases this can cause a failure of the EPS motor which will illuminate a warning light on the dash. Whilst directional control is not affected it is possible that the driver will experience a sudden loss of power assistance. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées de novembre 2006 à juin 2009

  Loss of steering. The cover screw securing the pinion shaft may loosen causing noise during steering operation. Continued use in this condition could result in the screw coming out of the gear housing and in certain circumstances cause a loss of steering control. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Circuit de carburantfabriquées de janvier 2008 à octobre 2008 (petite série) · diesel

  Fuel may leak from particulate filter. It has been identified that a connector in the diesel particulate filter fuel system may not be correctly attached. If this is ignored fuel may leak from the connector during a particulate filter regeneration cycle. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées de novembre 2006 à juin 2007

  Potential loss of steering. It has been identified that the possibility exists that a needle bearing has been omitted from the steering shaft. Additionally the cover screw may not have been tightened to the correct torque. This may result in the cover screw becoming loose initiating free play and noise within the steering system. Ultimately steering control may be lost. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées en juin 2007 (petite série)

  Potential loss of steering. There is a possibility that a steering cover screw may not be sufficiently tight. This could lead to initially free play and noise in the steering which if not attended to eventually could result in the loss of steering control. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

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

  Potential loss of vehicle control. It has been identified that the front suspension lower ball joints on some of the subject vehicles have not been fully seated into the hub. This has resulted in the securing bolt not fitting into the groove in the ball joint shank. If the situation goes uncorrected the ball joint could detach which could result in loss of vehicle control. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA
