Car Recall Check

An inadequate screw connection may result in the loss of the side panel, endangering following road-users if this side panel falls on the roadway.

The exhaust pipe may work loose and fall onto the road leading to an accident.

An unfavourable flange angle on the rear axles may result in an unauthorized rake angle on the drive shaft for the first and second rear axles. As a result, the mounting bush or journal cross may come loose from its mounting, and fragments of the drive shaft may leave the area surrounding the vehicle.

Owing to a processing error, there may be isolated instances of cracking in the driver and/or passenger seat frames. As the seats are attached to these frames and the vehicles' seat belt system is integrated into the seats, safety could be significantly compromised in the event of a collision.

One of the four bolts on the trailing-axle stabiliser may not have been tightened with a sufficient torque, and may not be able to support a constant load and/or could come loose. This can lead to road accidents, injuries. 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.

Insufficiently tightened screws on the front axle leaf spring attachment may lead to detachment of the leaf spring, causing the vehicle pull to one side (inclined position) while driving. In addition, if the screw on the front bearing block comes loose, it can protrude into the swivelling range of the steering column, which can impair the steering ability of the vehicle, increasing the risk of an accident. The product does not comply with 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.

Insufficient torque applied in the left front frame screws poses a risk of component detachment, potentially causing vibrations and impacting driving performance and increasing the risk of accidents and harm to occupants. Additionally, the crashworthiness of the driver cab is not assured for specific screw connections, heightening the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. The product does not comply with 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.

Manufacturing residues on the leaf-spring material could result in corrosion and ultimately to fracture of the leaf spring on the front axle. Any pieces which break off could end up in the road and endanger following traffic.

A malfunction of the parking brake check position may lead to the vehicle rolling away. This may increase the risk of an accident.

The high pressure line is possibly fitted defectively. Fuel could leak leading to the risk of fire.

The outer section of the front cab air deflector may become entirely or partly detached from the inner section or from the vehicle. The outer section may become completely detached from the vehicle and fall off, which may increase the accident risk.

Due to a damaged socket spanner, the four nuts of the battery-device carrier might not have been fastened at the required torque. As a result, the bolt connections could become detached from the vehicle frame increasing the risk of accidents.
