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.

• Autrefabriquées d'août 2002 à avril 2006

  Air bag control module for the supplemental restraint system could be susceptible to internal shorting. Possible inadvertent air bag deployment. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées d'août 2002 à octobre 2008

  Loss of steering. It is possible that the splines of the extension shaft on vehicles equipped with Electric Motor assisted Power Steering (EMPS) may not have received the correct hardness treatment. This can cause the spline to distort and wear and eventually result in loss of steering. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Autrefabriquées de janvier 2003 à octobre 2008

  Tow ball may fracture. On Toyota Avensis Previa and Lexus GS fitted with a Toyota or Lexus genuine or Brink branded (only on Avensis) detachable towing hitch the possibility exists that the detachable towing ball in some exceptional cases (under severe mechanical stress) might develop a crack. In a worst case the detachable towing ball might fracture and/or fail. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Circuit de carburantfabriquées de juillet 2000 à juillet 2008

  Fuel may leak. It is possible that during the manufacturing process the wall thickness of the high pressure supply pipe may have been reduced. If the driving conditions of the vehicle cause fuel pressure fluctuations this could cause cracking and result in a fuel leak. Also due to gasket fatigue and prolonged usage the high pressure fuel pump check valve may be come loose and leak. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées de janvier 2003 à décembre 2005

  Steering may fail. It is possible that the connections at the intermediate shaft and sliding yoke of the steering column may become loose and if the symptoms are ignored steering control can be lost. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées de janvier 2003 à novembre 2003

  Steering - wear of the intermediate shaft spline. It is possible on certain Avensis models fitted with Electric Motor assisted Power Steering (EMPS) that the intermediate steering shaft was incorrectly assembled this can result in premature wear of the shaft splines. This is identified by the abnormal noise produced however if the vehicle continues to be driven in this condition it may become difficult or in the worst case impossible to steer.

• Freinsfabriquées de janvier 2003 à mars 2003

  Possible imbalance under heavy braking.. The brake pipes leading into the ABS actuator may have been incorrectly positioned. This could cause an imbalance in performance under heavy braking. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Ceintures, sièges, attelage, carrosseriefabriquées de février 1999 à juillet 2000

  Car spoiler may become detached. There is a possibility that the car spoiler may become loose or detached. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Circuit de carburantfabriquées de juillet 2000 à juin 2001

  Possibility of fuel leak. There is a possibility that excessive residual stress remains on the check valve of the fuel pump during the assembly process. If the vehicle is driven with the residual stress the check valve may leak fuel. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA
