Water Vehicle model SJ700B
The handlebar grips may not be securely attached and may slip off the handlebar while in operation.
Mercury Diesel sterndrive engine
The product is fitted with either a digital throttle and shift (DTS) or a mechanical throttle and shift. The issue identified only affects products that are fitted with a DTS. For these products, a failure of either the trim, pitot, steering or paddle wheel sensor could result in a reduction of sensor voltage and cause a misinterpretation of the DTS shift actuator's position.
Mercury Diesel 2.8 L and 4.2 L engines
The flexible fuel return hose which runs from the fuel distribution block to the fuel injection pump may experience a crack at the end of the hose, which could allow a small leakage of diesel fuel.
Evinrude ICON Single and Dual Lever Binnacle Mount Remote Controls and ICON II Dual Lever Binnacle Mount Remote Controls
A limited number of binnacle mount remote control levers designed and assembled by our supplier may be incorrectly assembled and pull away from the remote control. This results in a loss of throttle and shift control. In some circumstances, this situation may cause serious injury or even death.
GHP Reactor Marine Autopilot
Garmin has discovered an issue involving software on GHP Reactor Autopilots that may cause the unit memory to become corrupted and inoperative.
Some Evinrude® ETEC ® G2 74° V6 (3.4 L) Outboard engines
The two T45 pipe plugs on the outboard’s stern and swivel assembly were not sufficiently tightened and can loosen, potentially creating the loss of hydraulic steering fluid.
Mercury Diesel 2.0 L
In engines which have an octagonal cooler, it is possible for components of the steering system of the engine to make contact with the oil cooler.
4.5 L Mercury MerCruiser
There is a risk that a fuel leak could occur in the fuel system.
Evinrude® E-TEC® G2 74° V6 (3.4 L) Outboard engines
A limited number of outboard engines may have a steering component which has been incorrectly assembled.
Mercury Outboard Verado with Joystick Piloting
The steering actuator may be missing the two screws that are intended to retain the internal sensor magnet. The absence of those screws permits the magnet to move and this can result in a false position value being recorded.
'Eco' 2 Tonne Override Coupling fitted to Easytow Trailers
Under heavy use the coupling head and coupling shaft may develop slackness. This may create extra stress on the locking pin which may shear. The shaft could then rotate in the coupling head, unscrew and detach.
Mercury Diesel 3.0L (Tier 3)
A loose connection on the oil supply line to the supercharger may allow oil to come into contact with hot engine components.
Aurora Red Hand Flare MK2 - Marine Distress Signal
Testing has revealed that some Aurora Red Hand Flares showed inconsistent performance.
Zeus Suncraft 2.0 and 2.2 Integrated Autopilot
When the autopilot system is used, the vessel may lose GPS signal and deviate from the desired heading.
Body Glove Outboard Bridle
The pulley may release during use.
ARX1200N2 / N3 / T2 / T3 Personal Water Craft
Over time, the plastic fuel tanks on all ARX1200 personal water crafts can crack and leak fuel after having been exposed to chemicals commonly found in many aerosol sprays used to clean the engine and prevent oxidation of metal parts. Even a small amount of chemical exposure can lead to cracking over time.
GME Accusat EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon)
Due to a microprocessor malfunction, the EPIRB may fail the self test procedure.
Scania Marine Engine
The engine bracket screws have not been tightened with sufficient torque.
ICON Binnacle Mount Remote Controls
A limited number of ICON binnacle mount remote control levers may be incorrectly assembled. The result is that the levers may pull away from the remote control, resulting in loss of throttle and shift control.
Quintrex Navigation Light Mounting Plate
In some circumstances it may be possible for a person's finger to be caught between the edge of the navigation light mounting plate and the bow rail tube.
Stacer Navigation Light Mounting Plate
In some circumstances it may be possible for a person's finger to be caught between the edge of the navigation light mounting plate and the bow rail tube.
Savage Navigation Light Mounting Plate
In some circumstances it may be possible for a person's finger to be caught between the edge of the navigation light mounting plate and the bow rail tube.
Magic Tilt Trailers
Some of these trailers may be equipped with Carlisle's Hydrastar or Hydrastar XL brake actuators, which are subject to wear at a higher than normal rate. As the component wears, the load on the electric motor increases until either the fuse that protects the motor fails or the motor itself fails.
MerCruiser engine
The main engine wire harness may be routed incorrectly allowing it to be too close to the DTS shift actuator. Repeated movement of the DTS shift actuator arm may cause the engine wire harness shielding to wear through, exposing the wires and causing a direct short circuit to ground, which could create an ignition source prior to the fuses interrupting the circuit.
Seat Box
Under very heavy loads it is possible for the seat box weld to fatigue and crack.
MerCruiser 8.2L Petrol SternDrive and Inboard Engines
A fuel leak may occur at the balance hose connection to the fuel rail.
Steering Cable
A small percentage of steering cables are suspected to incorporate an output ram that may potentially develop cracks during service.
1kW Transom-Mount Transducers
The plastic transducer support used to attach 1kW Transom-mount transducers may break during installation or normal use.
Honda outboard fuel tank
Fuel may leak from the portable fuel tank pickup.
