The risk
The product poses a risk of fire and injuries because it may contain a deformed piston pin retainer clip. Over time the clip could become detached. This could lead, in the worst case scenario, to damage to the wall of the cylinder and the cylinder crankcase, causing oil leakage from the engine and a risk of the vehicle catching fire.
