    Inappropriate air bag activation/deactivation can increase the risk of occupant injury in the event of a vehicle crash.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    TIRES:TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY SPARE TIREUS

    Vibrations from driving may cause the nut to loosen, allowing the wheel to separate from the car. If the spare wheel separates from the vehicle, it could become a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash.

    The maximum weight listed on the label is incorrect (too low) and therefore does not comply with Federal Regulations.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM/PCM/TECM)US

    If the driver exits the vehicle without the transmission being in Park, the vehicle could roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.

    ELECTRICAL SYSTEMUS

    An electrical short-circuit can increase the risk of a fire.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    AIR BAGS:FRONTALUS

    An improperly functioning mat may cause the passenger frontal air bag to be inactive when the seat is occupied, and in the event of a crash, the air bag will not deploy, increasing the passenger's risk of injury.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    AIR BAGSUS

    If the air bag inflator initiator fails to ignite, the seat-mounted air bag will not deploy, increasing the risk of injury.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTSUS

    If the brake light does not illuminate when a turn signal is activated, other drivers may be confused, increasing the risk of a crash.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    SEAT BELTS:FRONT:RETRACTORUS

    In the event of a crash where heavy braking is applied, the Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) may activate when the occupant is more forward in the seat, possibly increasing the risk of injury.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC):CONTROL MODULEUS

    A loss of brake power assist or rear brake function can result in extended stopping distance. A loss of ABS or DSC can cause a loss of vehicle handling and control. Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:POWER ASSIST:ELECTRIC:CONTROL MODULEUS

    A loss of power brake assist can extend the distance required to stop the vehicle. Additionally, malfunctioning ABS and/or DSC systems can cause a loss of vehicle control. Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.

  • Mini COOPERdate unknown
    STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEMUS

    If the vehicle experiences a loss of power steering assist, extra steering effort will be required at lower speeds, potentially increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
