Car Recall Check

The safety ring on the right-hand side shaft on the front axle may not be correctly mounted or may be missing. This could lead to the right front wheel suddenly becoming blocked, causing an accident.

The universal joint gear may be subject to excessive wear due to insufficient torque in the screw connection of the steering coupling. As a result, the transfer of the desired steering torque might no longer be assured. This could result in the loss of rotational torque transfer between the steering wheel and the steering box which would make it impossible to steer the vehicle.

The cable between the inner door handle and the door lock may not be strong enough to withstand the highly increased force which may be needed after an accident to unlock the door from the inside. In this case, the occupants may not be be able to leave the vehicle.

The spot welding between the serrated strip and the airbag cover in the instrument panel support plate may not have been carried out correctly. This may lead to an unpredictable deployment of the airbag and the airbag cover in case of accident, leading to a higher risk of injury.

Cracks may develop in the rear axle transmission housing, which could lead to transmission oil leaking onto the road, posing a risk to the following traffic. Moreover, subsequent fracturing of the housing could lead to an interruption of the power transmission on the rear axle, causing a loss of wheel guidance and propulsion without warning, 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.

The bolts in the transfer box may not meet the specifications and can fracture during driving. In such a case, the power transmission to the axles would be interrupted. In addition, broken fragments of the bolts could block the transfer box and thus the wheels, increasing the risk of an accident.Furthermore, the gear casing could be damaged and oil could leak onto the road, posing a risk to the following traffic.

An incorrectly embossed lock symbol for the child safety locks may lead to misinterpretations. This could result in the rear doors being opened from inside despite apparently being locked, increasing the risk of an accident.

Depending on the tolerances of the latch and lock trap, the rear doors may not be fully closed, although they appear to be closed. As a result, certain driving manoeuvres and road conditions could cause the rear doors to open unexpectedly while driving, increasing the risk of accident. Additionally, if the child safety lock is activated on the rear doors and excessive force is used on the inner door handle to attempt to open them from inside the vehicle, the closing lever of the lock mechanism may become deformed and prevent the rear doors from being opened from the inside, increasing the risk of injury in the event of an accident.

Cracks may appear in the rear axle transmission housing which can lead to oil leaks on the road, increasing the risk of an accident for other traffic. The cracks can also cause the casing to break, which can result in power transmission loss to the rear axle and impaired steering. 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.

The oil supply to the drive shaft bearing in the rear axle differential may be inadequate, which could lead to that the car suddenly loses speed, creating a risk of an accident. Moreover, the rear wheels may lock, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and/or transmission oil may leak or vehicle parts may fall onto the road, endangering other road users. 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.
