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.

  The force-limiter in the seat belt retractor may not operate as designed. The subject front seat belt assemblies are service parts designed for certain Toyota and Lexus models containing a seat belt retractor with a force-limiter function using a torsion shaft which helps control the loads on the occupant applied by the shoulder belt after the seat belt retractor locks up during a crash. During production the torsion shaft may have been manufactured incorrectly and the seat belt may not operate as designed allowing the seat belt to extend further than intended after locking. This can increase the amount of forward displacement of the occupant increasing the risk of an injury in the event of a crash severe enough to activate a force-limiter. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Directionfabriquées d'octobre 2005 à novembre 2012

  Risk of fire. Affected vehicles are equipped with a driver’s side Power Window Master Switch (PWMS) containing sliding electrical contact modules. These modules may not have been incorrectly coated during the manufacturing process. This may cause a short circuit which could cause the switch to overheat and melt Rappel sur le site de la DVSA

• Airbagsfabriquées de juillet 2003 à novembre 2008

  Driver side airbag may rupture. Subject vehicles are fitted with driver's air bag assemblies with single stage inflators.

• Roues, essieux et châssisfabriquées d'août 2005 à octobre 2010

  Rear suspension arm may separate. If the rear suspension arm is adjusted as part of a wheel alignment or other repairs whilst in service it is possible that backlash can occur. This can allow corrosion to develop and cause the threads to deteriorate. Ultimately this could result in failure of the arm with a resultant loss of control of the vehicle.

• Roues, essieux et châssisfabriquées de juillet 2001 à septembre 2004 · diesel

  Road wheel spokes may crack and separate. It has been identified that steel wheels of insufficient strength have been fitted to some grades of RAV4 vehicles fitted with diesel engines. The possibility then exist that a crack may appear on the spoke(s) of the wheel which in the worst case could cause the spoke to separate. Rappel sur le site de la DVSA
