Incorrect assembly of the steering rack which could cause the loss of the mechanical link between the steering pinion valve and the steering rack during parking manoeuvres at full lock.
Incorrect assembly of the steering rack which could cause the loss of the mechanical link between the steering pinion valve and the steering rack during parking manoeuvres at full lock.
The tightening torque of one of the nuts of the connection between the brake servo unit and the brake pedal may be not correct to specification. This may allow air to enter the servo
It has been identified that the pins within the electric power assisted steering control unit may not have been contact welded correctly. This can result in an open circuit which will lead to a…
Due to an error in the manufacturing process the air bag and/or seat belt pretensioner may not trigger in the event of a collision
It has been identified that during production the temperature sensors for the alternator have been installed/located in the wrong position. This can result in the driver not receiving an early warning of the alternator…
Unions on certain brake pipes may not have been tightened to the correct torque. This may allow fluid to escape and affect the braking efficiency.
The screws retaining the fuel collection pipe(s) may shear under stress. This may allow the pipe(s) to separate from the injector(s) and cause fuel to leak.
It has been identified that the Central Brake Unit and Rear Axle Modulator units may not function as intended. This can cause a higher braking retardation or quicker braking than anticipated. This can result…
The front and/or rear axle mounting bolts may not be tightened to the correct specification. The bolts may break and could affect control of the vehicle.
Due to a manufacturing process deviation the toothed rack of the steering gear might break under extensive force application i.e. when manoeuvring at slow speed.
It has been identified that the side board hinges may fail. This could result in the detachment of the side board whilst the vehicle is in motion.
It has been identified that a fuel hose may not have been produced to specification. This can cause a fuel leak which is not rectified could in the worst case scenario result in a…
There is the possibility of water penetration into the vent hose resulting in water ingress into the vacuum pump over the wire harness and into the relay box. In the worst case a short…
Certain Citan vehicles may have cracks on the steering column tube due to a manufacturing fault.
It has been identified that the underfloor mounted diesel fuel cooler may not have been manufactured to specification. This can result in fuel leak. The driver will become aware of the issue by either…
A number of steering spindles may have been fitted that are not to specification. In the worst case the result could be loss of directional control.
The waterproof boots for the throttle cable may not be manufactured to specification. The boots may deteriorate and allow water ingress. The water could freeze in low ambient temperatures causing the throttle not to…
A recess on the inside of the fascia panel may not have been correctly machined . This recess affects the deployment of the front passenger's air bag and it may not deploy as intended.
It is possible for the automatic transmission to shift from 6th to 1st due to an incorrect signal from the output speed sensor. The unintended down shift will cause an abrupt wheel speed reduction.
It has been identified that the gearshift lever resting position may mislead drivers into believing the vehicle's transmission is in the park position when actually the it is still in a drive gear. This…
Rear leaf spring retaining bolts may not have been tightened to the correct specification.
It has been identified that the drag link rod ball joints and/or at the link rod clamp may not have been torqued to the correct specification. It is therefore possible that the securing nuts…
On some units there is a possibility that the brake pedal has incorrect welding penetration between the arm and the foot support. In this condition the brake pedal may break when a breaking force…
