• Recall R/2017/124 [UK]: Faulty control unit may cause vehicle to perform outside specification
  Where a control unit coding was updated in a workshop between 3 december 2016 and 5 december 2016 the coding may not correspond to the specification and may trigger unplanned action in the vehicle. The safety and emissions systems may not react as design intent.
  recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and update the software in the corresponding control units.

• Recall R/2017/157 [UK]: Brakes may overheat creating a risk of smoke and/or fire
  The software for the electronic stability program (esp) is faulty. The fault could lead to a low residual pressure in the hydraulic system so the brakes are applied and gain heat. This increased heat will apply the brakes further and could adversely affect the brake fluid. Fire in the wheel housing cannot be ruled out.
  recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and update the software for the esp.

• Recall R/2016/120 [UK]: Steering efficiency may be reduced
  A lock nut on a rear suspension tie rod may not have been manufactured to the correct specification. It may not act as intended even tightened to specification. It is unlikely the rod will disconnect but it may loosen and affect the vehicle's handling characteristics.
  on affected vehicles replace the rear tie rod lock nuts.

• Recall 2017248 [Canada]: Brakes
  Certain vehicles may have incorrect electronic stability program (esp) software installed. In the event a driver assist system (e.G. Adaptive cruise control) initiates automatic braking and aborts again during the early stage of brake pressure increase, a low residual pressure could remain in the hydraulic brake system. As a result, the braking system could continue applying minimal pressure with the brake pad contacting the rotor, and may heat up when driving is continued. Constant brake pad application over longer periods of driving could lead to the brake fluid heating in the brake caliper, resulting in higher pressure in the brake system. This could reduce brake performance, and increase the risk of a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will update the software for the esp.

• Recall 2016303 [Canada]: Lights and instruments
  A certain vehicle may not comply with the requirements of canada motor vehicle safety standard (cmvss) 108 - lighting system and retroreflective devices. The basic setting of the low beam headlamps may deviate from the tolerance range that is required by the standard. Headlight performance could be reduced, potentially increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will inspect the basic setting of headlamps, and correct if necessary.

• Recall 2016233 [Canada]: Steering
  Certain vehicles may have been assembled with improperly manufactured rear tie rod lock nuts. This could cause the rear tie rods to become loose resulting in a change in the alignment, affecting steering control and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will replace the defective rear tie rod lock nuts.

• Recall 2016156 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain vehicles, the backup power supply feed for the ignition switch may have been incorrectly connected at the time of production. In the event of a loss of main battery power and an engine stop with the transmission out of park and the electric parking brake not applied, without the backup power supply the transmission would not be able to shift to park ( p ). This could result in the vehicle being inoperable without any way of keeping it stationary other than applying the brakes which, under certain circumstances, could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will adapt the wiring harness and update the software calibration number ( scn ) coding.
