Description (français)
Lors de l'assemblage, ces véhicules ont été équipés de tuyaux en caoutchouc de retour d'essence qui laissent fuir lentement celle-ci pendant le fonctionnement du moteur. Dans certaines conditions, cette fuite peut entraîner un début d'incendie qui peut se propager à l'habitable et provoquer des brûlures aux passagers.
