Porsche Macan (S. GTS. Turbo)

The risk

Adverse tolerances combined with external force may cause the lower section of the maintenance bonnet to come into contact with the fuel inlet connector on the fuel delivery unit flange. As a result, damage to the fuel inlet connector may occur and lead to fuel leakage, 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.
