The risk

Due to a manufacturing defect, the seal on the high-pressure fuel pipe on the cylinder bank 2 may be defective. This may result in fuel leakage from the screw connection on the high-pressure sensor, increasing the risk of fire. The product does not comply with 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.
