Combination meter display may fail
A memory fault may cause the combination meter display to remain blank, hiding the speedometer and warnings and potentially increasing accident risk. Software will be updated; the meter will be replaced if needed. For Swace models, software will be updated.
Official DVSA recall text
- Component
- Combination Meter Reprogramming or Replacement â Early Notification
- Defect
- On affected vehicles equipped with a combination meter system where various information is displayed (warning and indicator lights vehicle gauges messages etc.) due to improper programming the memory device within the combination meter can deteriorate. If this occurs the monitor will not be displayed after IG-ON and will remain in this state permanently. Driving without speedometer and any warning may result in an increased risk of an accident in certain driving conditions.
- Remedy
- For Across (PHEV) models check and install modified software or if necessary replace the combination meter. For Swace models install modified software.

Hybrid system may shut down after battery voltage drops
Continued EV use in cold weather followed by sudden acceleration may lower battery voltage and shut down the hybrid system, causing loss of drive. The hybrid vehicle control ECU will be reprogrammed.
Official DVSA recall text
- Component
- In the plug-in hybrid system when the battery voltage drops due to continued use of EV mode in cold temperatures sudden acceleration may result in insufficient battery charge-discharge control and a lower voltage than expected. This may cause the warning light to come on and the hybrid system to shut down. This could result in a loss of drive and an increased risk of a crash.
