Due to a problem during the production process, the vibration of the engine can cause cracks inside the high-pressure fuel pump. This may lead to a fuel leak, increasing the risk of fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

Exposure of the aluminium negative terminal to the electrolyte can cause a chemical reaction, leading to material degradation around the electrical connection. This compromises the connection's seal and can cause an electrolyte leakage. This can lead the terminals to crack, rendering the vehicle inoperable due to electrical failure. If the battery remains live, a spark can occur, posing a risk of a vehicle fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

The fuel pump impeller's defective molding can cause the impeller to have low density, which can lead to cracking. This can result in the impeller absorbing too much fuel, deforming, and potentially causing the fuel pump to fail. This failure can lead to the engine stalling while driving or failing to start, creating a risk of accidents and injuries to vehicle occupants. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

The brake master cylinder may detach, affecting the braking performance and creating a risk of an accident. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

The driver's seat frame may break due to continuous external stress. In the event of an accident, this can prevent the driver restraint system from functioning, increasing the risk of injury. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

The drive shafts installed in the vehicles concerned were coated with a lubricant which accelerates the wearing of the protective layer covering them, making them more susceptible to damage caused by road debris. Furthermore, grit containing de-icing agents used to maintain the roads could accumulate in damaged parts of the drive shafts, increasing corrosion and the risk of breaking at high torque.Both situations increase the risk of accident/injury for passengers and other road users. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of Motor Vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

Due to inappropriate molding conditions, the density of the resin for the low-pressure fuel pump impeller is reduced, causing it to swell and deform by the fuel. Consequently, the impeller interferes with the pump cover and makes the fuel pump inoperative.As a result the engine may stall, increasing the risk of an accident.

The airbag inflators may be defective and may create excessive internal pressure in the event of activation.As a result, the metal inflator casing may rupture, causing metal fragments to be propelled through the airbag and into the passenger compartment, injuring the vehicle occupants.

During repeated acceleration/deceleration, the emissions control system in the diesel Engine Control Unit (ECU) is unable to prevent sulphur accumulation inside the catalyst due to lack of robustness of the engine control software. This reduces the purification performance of nitrogen oxides (NOx). Therefore, it does not satisfy the regulatory requirement for emissions level.

The replacement service parts from the previous recall may be defective. In the event of the passenger frontal airbag being deployed, the excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator body to rupture and metal fragments may pass through the cushion material causing injury to the occupants.

A defect in the gas generator of the front-seat passenger airbag leads to uncontrolled inflation and the release of metal fragments when the airbag is activated. This can cause the occupants of the vehicle to be injured.

There is no side vent in the backrest of the front seat. In the event of an accident, this may prevent deployment of the side airbag.

A fault with the inflator of the front passenger airbag results in the release, when the airbag is activated, of small metal particles which may injure the occupants of the vehicle.

The inflator's propellant may degrade over time due to heat cycles and exposure to moisture. In case of an accident with airbag deployment, the inflator may burst and metal fragments may be expelled and cause serious or fatal injuries.

One of the valves in the vehicle stability assist / anti-lock braking modulator may be kept open as a result of a small piece of valve material remaining in the valve during the manufacturing of the modulator. If the valve does not operate correctly, the anti-lock braking will not operate correctly resulting in possible wheel lock under anti-lock brake operation. This could increase the risk of a vehicle crash.

The plastic filter of the vehicle stability assist (VSA) /anti-lock braking modulator may be misaligned and a small piece of broken filter might enter the modulator. As a result, the vehicle stability system may not be able to control the vehicle as intended.

Abnormal deployment pressure may lead to rupture of the driver's air bag inflator case. In this event, metal fragments could be propelled into the passenger compartment, potentially causing injury to a vehicle occupant.

Owing to excess internal pressure, inflation of the driver airbag can cause the inflator to split and release metal fragments which can cause injury to the vehicle passengers.

The driver's airbag inflator may produce excessive internal pressure if deployed. The increased pressure may cause the inflator to rupture propelling metal fragments causing injury to the vehicle occupants.

The passenger airbag inflator may produce excessive internal pressure if deployed. The increased pressure may cause the inflator to rupture propelling metal fragments causing injury to the vehicle occupants.

The passenger airbag inflator may produce excessive internal pressure if deployed. The increased pressure may cause the inflator to rupture propelling metal fragments causing injury to the occupant.

The driver’s front airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure when the airbag deploys causing the inflator to rupture. If this happens, metal fragments could be propelled into the passenger compartment causing injury to the driver.

The passenger’s front airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure if it deploys, causing the inflator to rupture. In this case, metal fragments could be propelled upwards toward the windscreen or downward towards the front passenger’s foot-well, potentially causing injury to the passenger.

On vehicles equipped with “one push” or “keyless” start function, the clutch switches are monitored to check they are functioning correctly. This monitoring function is not sufficient to detect a switch malfunction in all cases. If the clutch switch fails and is not detected correctly, it may be possible to start the car in gear without the clutch being depressed. This unexpected vehicle behaviour may cause an accident.

Due to a software error in the transmission control unit, if the vehicle is parked in reverse gear and the engine restarted and neutral or first gear is then selected, the vehicle may not move, may stall or in the worst case may move backwards unexpectedly. This unexpected reverse movement could cause an accident.

The product poses a risk of injuries because some airbag inflators may have been assembled with insufficient propellant components which, over a period of time, can result in the propellant being broken into small pieces, thus increasing its surface area. During airbag deployment, this increased surface area of propellant can cause an excessive inflator pressure. If the inflator pressure is too high the inflator case may rupture and metal fragments can pass through the airbag cushion material.
