Complaint Information: OBD II Codes

NHTSA Mandated Recalls
  • 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/2017/282 [UK]: Electrical wiring in steering assembly may be insufficiently grounded
    The steering column clock spring may break. This will cause warning messages to illuminate in the instrument cluster but in extreme instances it may cause the driver's airbag to deploy.
    affected vehicles will be recalled to establish sufficient grounding of the steering components.

  • Recall R/2018/098 [UK]: Steering components may be insufficiently grounded
    It has been determined that the steering airbag electrical components are insufficiently grounded. Failure of the steering column module clock spring could result in an inadvertent deployment of the driver airbag which may cause risk of injury to the driver and an increased risk of a potential collision.
    on affected vehicles the manufacturer will fit a contact bridge to the outer race of the steering column top bearing which will provide correct grounding.

  • Recall R/2018/130 [UK]: Electrical wiring in steering assembly may be insufficiently grounded
    The steering column clock spring may break. This will cause warning messages to illuminate in the instrument cluster but in extreme instances it may cause the driver's airbag to deploy.
    affected vehicles will be recalled to establish sufficient grounding of the steering components

  • Recall R/2020/243 [UK]: Engine control unit software to be updated
    Improve the vehicle emissions via software updates.
    update the relevant control unit?S software and if necessary replace the nox sensors.

  • Recall R/2018/266 [UK]: To improve emissions of the affected vehicles.certain calibrations of functionalities must be changed in the engine management
    Improve the vehicle emissions via software updates.
    update the diesel engine control unit software and add a supplementary booklet for the operator's manual

  • Recall R/2021/274 [UK]: Vehicles with a panoramic sunroof the polycarbonate panel may not have been bonded correctly during a prior service repair

  • Recall 2018724 [Canada]: Steering
    On certain vehicles originally sold or currently registered in areas of heavy road salt usage during winter months (quebec, new brunswick, nova scotia, prince edward island, and newfoundland & labrador), the bolts that attach the electric power steering assist motor to the steering gear housing may corrode and break. This could cause a loss of power steering assist. The resulting increase in steering effort could create the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will replace the mounting bolts and apply a corrosion protection coating to the gear housing and bolts. If the bolts bolt cannot be removed, a replacement steering gear will be installed.

  • Recall 2017490 [Canada]: Airbag
    On certain vehicles, electrostatic discharge, when combined with a broken clock spring and insufficient grounding of the steering components, could lead to an inadvertent deployment of the driver's frontal airbag. Unintended airbag deployment, in a non-warranted (non-impact) situation, could startle the driver, which could result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage. In some instances, inadvertent deployment could cause minor injuries to vehicle occupants. Correction: dealers will add sufficient grounding to the steering components. Note: a broken clock spring would result in a driver airbag warning message appearing in the instrument cluster, as well as a red airbag warning lamp illuminating.
