Recall R/1997/078 [UK]: Possible short circuiting
The main cable between the battery and the master switch can contact the edge of the body panel in the boot area. If the panel cuts through the cable insulation a short circuit may occur resulting in potential loss of electrical supply and a possible risk of fire. affected vehicles are being recalled for inspection of the battery cable routing. Where insufficient clearance exists the cable will be repositioned. Additionally if the cable shows signs of wear it will be repaired or replaced as required.
Recall 1997080 [Canada]: Brakes
The integrated hydraulic brake and load levelling system on these vehicles functions by means of pressurized mineral oil. Characteristics of certain batches of hydraulic system mineral oil may affect the operation of the distribution valves. When this occurs, brake pedal feel may vary, especially following a prolonged period of inactivity. Higher pedal effort may be required upon initial application of the brake in order to achieve desired braking performance. Correction: mineral oil will be changed.
Recall 1997187 [Canada]: Electrical
These vehicles are equipped with a trunk mounted battery. There may be insufficient clearance between the battery cable and the luggage compartment side carpet flange. This could eventually cause wear of the cable insulation, potentially resulting in a short circuit, loss of electrical supply, or fire. Correction: battery cable will be repositioned and any damaged cables will be replaced.
Recall 1995169 [Canada]: Electrical
A wire inside the electric motor driven gearbox actuator may come into contact with the inner face of the assembly case, causing fretting of the wire and also causing the fuse protecting the circuit to blow if this occurs it would not be possible to engage the desired gear range and may not be possible to restart the vehicle after the engine has been switched off. If "park" is not engaged and the driver does not apply the parking brake, a roll away could occur. Correction: affected wire will be repositioned.
