Recall Details

Concern : FIRE MAY OCCUR
Description : A seal between bonnet and engine compartment may, when the bonnet is opened, temporarily stick to the bonnet. If this happens the seal may detach from its fixing and can fall into the gap between engine and partition wall. It is then possible the seal can make contact with the exhaust and, under certain conditions, catch fire.
Remedial Action : On affected vehicles, install additional clips to retain the seal.
