PEUGEOT 2008 – statistika z registru

The malfunction indicator light (MIL) may fail to illuminate if the diagnostic system of the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and/or the diesel particulate filter (DPF) malfunctions after a fault code has appeared. This could cause the vehicle to operate without the required warning, and resulting in emissions above the regulatory limits. The product does not comply with the Regulation on type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information.

The fuel tank may not be leakproof and could allow fuel to leak out. In the event of leakage, leaking fuel may be ignited on hot components or from sparks and catch 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.

Due to oil carbonisation and high contact pressure, the 7 mm camshaft chain resistance can be reduced. This may cause the camshaft chain to break, leading to an engine failure. This can cause a loss of vehicle's control and increase the risk of accidents and injuries. 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 a faulty software of the electronic engine control unit (ECU), an incorrect value may be given when the data are processed by the vehicle. This may result in nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions above the regulatory limits. Excessive NOx emissions pose a risk to the environment. 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.

In certain vehicles fitted with the DV5R E6.3 engine, the nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions are above the regulatory limits. Excessive NOx emissions pose a risk to the environment. 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.

A software error in the engine control unit prevents the malfunction indicator light (MIL) from switching on if the urea injector stops working. This can lead to higher emissions and poses a risk to the environment. 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 lubrication of the vacuum pump may be insufficient and this can cause it to break, which in turn can lead to reduced braking assistance, 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.

Improper torque on wheel/axle connection may lead to the loss of connection between a wheel and the axle (front and rear), or a rupture of the rear brake line/hose or an unexpected opening of a door while driving can occur, 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 high voltage wiring harness may be defective. This could result in an increased 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.

The open circuit detecting system on the high voltage circuit may be over-sensitive and could unnecessarily cut off the electric current. As a result, the vehicle may lose power during driving, increasing the risk of an accident. Moreover, it could be impossible to restart or move the vehicle for several minutes. 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 teeth of the timing belt may wear off prematurely due to excessive dynamic tension in dusty conditions. As a result, the engine may stall at high engine speeds and not being able to restart, increasing the risk of an accident. The product does not meet the requirements laid down in 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 vacuum pump may be damaged due to material abrasion of the cog belt.As a result, the braking assistance could be reduced or lost, increasing the risk of an accident.

The sub-frame may corrode and fracture due to defective anti-rust treatment.This can lead to loss of control over the vehicle, increasing the risk of an accident.

A plastic component (spacer) included in the exhaust line could damage the Diesel Particle Filter (DPF) under certain conditions, creating small cracks or holes. Depending on the amount of damage, the particulate emission level could exceed regulatory limits.

Wrong engine calibration tuning might cause the exhaust emissions' level of nitrogen oxides (NOx) to exceed regulated limits. Nitrogen oxides are harmful to human health and the environment.

The rear axle connection may be inadequate and could break. As a result, the rear axle may be disconnected from the vehicle, increasing the risk of an accident.

null An internal component of an electric relay is faulty. As a consequence, the starter may not be activated, the starter control may be constantly blocked or the starter may operate unexpectedly. This could lead to unexpected movement of the vehicle or fire caused by damage to the starter due to overheating.

null A problem with a component of the gearbox actuator could prevent gear changing or cause the driver to change to the wrong gear. This could lead to the vehicle moving in the opposite direction to that intended by the driver.

null Possible presence of a plastic part in an inlet valve of the ABS/ESP (anti-lock braking system/electronic stabilisation program) unit may cause faulty regulation by the ABS/ESP and untimely wheel-locking.

null The tightening torque of the right-hand, lower seatbelt fixing bolts may not be correct. In this case, the performance of the seatbelt may not be guaranteed in the event of an impact.

null Oil may leak from the turbocharger on to hot engine parts which could lead to a fire breaking out, even after the engine has been switched off.

null The roll-over valve located inside the petrol tank may not work properly. In case of the vehicle turning over, a fuel leak could occur which may lead to a fire.

null On some vehicles, the handbrake adjustment made at the factory requires the driver to pull the handbrake fully up to ensure sufficient efficiency of the braking if the vehicle is parked on a slope. If the handbrake is not fully deployed when the vehicle is parked on a slope, the vehicle could move leading to an accident.

null The possible non-conformity of the front suspension mounting bolts could lead to bolt breakage which could lead to difficulties in controlling the vehicle path.
