The cable of the catch inside the bonnet may be insufficiently secured. As a result, the bonnet might open unexpectedly while the vehicle is in motion, which could cause an accident.
Due to a problem with the fuel rail of the engine, fuel could leak.
The tightening torque of the right-hand, lower seatbelt fixing bolts may be incorrect. Consequently, the performance of the seatbelt may not be guaranteed in the event of impact.
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.
