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.

Due to an error in the specific calibration 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 that 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.

The ISOFIX clips on the right rear seat may be incorrectly welded. There may be no restraining effect provided by the ISOFIX lower anchorage system and a child seat may not be sufficiently secured, creating a risk of injury in the event 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.

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 safety function of the charging cable may fail and not prevent the cable from overheating, creating a 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 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.

Incorrect torque on various mechanical and electrical connections may lead to loss of control of the vehicle or propulsion failure, increasing the risk of an accident or 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 external door handles do not close the doors properly. There is a risk of doors opening while driving, increasing the 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 thread on the housing of the towing eye has the wrong dimensions and the eye cannot be screwed the required 7 to 8 turns. When towed, the vehicle can get disconnected from the vehicle towing it, posing a risk to the following traffic. 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 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.

The mechanical strength of the brake booster does not comply with the specification which may lead to impaired functioning of the braking assistance.As a result, the braking performance will be reduced, increasing the risk of an accident. -

The airbag control units might have received a shock during transportation to the vehicle assembly plant, which might cause an internal fault. In the event of an accident, the airbags might not work correctly.

Engine overheating may lead to an oil leak. Engine failure while driving could lead to loss of control of the vehicle resulting in a crash.

The suspension wishbone mounting bolts could break. This could lead to the driver losing control of the vehicle.

Incorrect assembly of the wheel valve and fragility of screw heads could cause rupture of the valve which can result in loss of tyre pressure. Loss of tyre pressure can lead to loss of control of the vehicle and, consequently to an accident.

There may be poor adhesion of the back spoiler on the boot lid. The spoiler could consequently fall.

The welding of the fuel injector of the engine may be incorrect. This can lead to a breakdown of the engine and the display of a warning light and alert message on the dashboard. In extreme circumstances, fuel may leak which could lead to a fire.

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.

The steering track rod may break while driving.

The doors may unlock and open when moving which could lead to impaired driving.

A problem with an internal component of the electric power steering (EPS) electronic management device could cause reduced steering assistance when driving or manoeuvring.

In the case of negative exterior temperatures, and after repeated activation of the fuel heater, an electric connection on the cover of the fuel heater can overheat. This can cause the cover to melt, allowing air to enter the fuel system which could lead to stalling of the engine and loss of control of the car.

Components of the suspensions may break while driving, which may cause a loss of control of the vehicle.

The reverse locking ring of the gear lever may break. If this happens, first gear could be engaged instead of reverse, which could lead to the car going the wrong way resulting in an accident.

The tightening of the upper attachment of the front right shock absorber rod may not be up to standard. With wear and tear, there is a risk of the suspension breaking, leading to loss of control of the vehicle and possible injuries.

The tightening torque for the steering mechanism mountings on the engine subframe may not be sufficient which may lead to some play in the steering which may cause an accident.
