Car Recall Check

The fitting of the headrest in the rear seat's backrest may be defective. In case of an accident the support and protection provided might be limited increasing the risk of injuries.

The strength of the rear wheel bearing housing may be insufficient. This could lead to failure of the rear wheel bearing housing with loss of wheel control.

A thermal overload can lead to an insufficient earth connection and interrupt the current flow to components in the ABS/ESC control unit. This could lead to the vehicle stability control function not working when required.

The lever of the manual, child-proof, locking system could break owing to prior damage during the manufacturing process. This can cause the child-proof locking system to be turned off without being noticed, especially in the event of strong vibrations, making it possible for the door to be opened from the inside.

Unsuitable front-axle springs may have been fitted in the vehicle. Consequently, the driving stability might be impaired, increasing the risk of accidents.
