Why it was recalled

The alternator regulator may fail, resulting in an uncontrolled charge into the storage batteries.  This may create a build up of excess hydrogen sulphide gas (H 2 S) due to lack of ventilation in the battery enclosure.

Hazard

The concentration of gas build up in the battery compartment and an ignition source could cause a spark to ignite the gas in the battery enclosure. There is a risk of fire or explosion resulting in serious injury, property damage or death.
