Situation: An issue has been identified on a limited number of vehicles within the listed Affected Vehicle Range which may have been manufactured away from process and in some cases a metallic 'creak' noise may be heard from the rear wheel arch area behind the seat when driving over uneven surfaces. Investigations have identified that the cross brace installed in the rear of the vehicle is rubbing against the bodywork, causing the metallic 'creak' noise under the circumstances above.
