RecallModerateElectricalEU
Due to a software issue, the parking assist control unit that works with the Surround View Monitor (PVM) to display the rearview camera image may freeze briefly during backup if reverse is selected shortly after the vehicle is started. In addition, the rearview camera may not appear the next time the vehicle is started if the vehicle is turned on and off again within a short period of time. This may increase the risk of an accident with a person or other vehicle during a support event.
RecallModerateEngineEU
The primary wiring harness wires that supply power to the generator's electronic motor control unit (MG ECU) are misrouted. As a result, they can be damaged and compromise the power supply to the ECU, resulting in loss of propulsion and increasing the risk of accidents and injuries.

Issue: On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the combination meter in the instrument cluster not to display when the vehicle is started. As a result, you may not be able to see certain information about the vehicle, including warning lights and malfunction tell-tales. Note: This recall only affects vehicles equipped with a 12.3-inch display. Safety Risk: Warnings, tell-tales and gauges that don't display could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and send a wireless over-the-air software update to eligible vehicles to update the combination meter software. Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the update performed at a dealership.
