The housing of the temperature pressure valve of the gas installation may spontaneously fracture during refueling. If the temperature pressure valve is broken, the relevant gas tank empties completely within a couple of minutes. The consequences of an unintentional gas leak could be anything from an injury to a thermal event, depending on the environmental condition and situation. /

Faulty locking rings may cause therings and the affected mounting bushes to be lost. In the worst-case scenario, it cannot be ruled out that the drive shaft may become detached. In such a case, the loose end of the drive shaft could damage the surrounding installation space. The loss of other components can therefore not be ruled out.

Under dynamic load, a crack in the forged parts of the steering-shaft adapter may spread further over the service life of the vehicle and ultimately lead to breakage. If the steering-shaft adapter were to break, the steering would immediately fail, increase the risk of a crash. The product does not comply with the requirements laid down in the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles

The preload force of the screw connection between the cab stabiliser and the stabiliser bar link is below the minimum threshold. This could cause the cab to move around and, possibly, the screws to break. If the cab were displaced, the steering shaft could conceivably jam, and in a worst case scenario, impair steerability. The product does not comply with the requirements laid down in theRegulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehiclesand their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technicalunits intended for such vehicles.

When the Active Drive Assist (ADA2) system is activated, a defective steering shaft may result in a mandatory warning to take control of the steering wheel not being displayed. This is particularly relevant in situations where the driver is not actively steering (hands-off detection). As a result, this may cause injuries to the driver.

The side skirt fastenings do not fit properly and may not fasten correctly.The side skirt could fall onto the road. This could increase the risk of an accident for following or oncoming traffic. 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.
