ENGINE MAY STALL

Reason for recall

Due to a high carbon build up the check ball seat of the timing chain tensioner can show premature wear. It is possible that the check ball may stick to the seat preventing the tensioner from functioning properly. This in turn will result in an un-tensioned timing chain which causes a rattling noise and in the worst cases the chain will break.

Remedy

Replace tensioner on all affected vehicles. Depending on outcome of further inspections the timing chain may also need to be replaced.
