Car Recall Check

The bodywork around the front wheelhouses has not been sealed in accordance with the specifications, allowing water to penetrate into the front foot spaces and damage the control units and other electrical components installed in those areas.As a result the instrument cluster could stop showing information, the braking assistance (e.g. ABS, ESP) could be restricted, or the engine could stall while driving or no longer be able start, increasing the risk of an accident.

The oil-supply pipe on the turbocharger may leak. As a result, engine oil could leak onto the under-body paneling and from there onto the road, posing a risk to the following traffic.Moreover, leaking engine oil might come into contact with hot components in the engine compartment, increasing the risk of fire.

The outer shell of the rear spoiler might not have been welded or may have been only partially welded to the base support. As a result, parts of the rear spoiler may become detached while the vehicle is in motion, posing a risk to the following traffic.

The fuel tank ventilation pipe may have a split, which may allow diesel fuel to escape during refueling or driving.Consequently, the leaked fuel may get into contact with the exhaust system, increasing risk of fire, or leak onto the road, posing a risk to the following traffic.

The quantity of oil in the dual-clutch gearbox may be too low or too high.This can result in impaired torque transmission, gearbox failure and potentially increased CO2 emissions.In addition, in extreme driving situations, gearbox oil might leak onto the road, posing a risk to the following traffic.Moreover, the leaking gearbox oil might come into contact with hot components, increasing the risk of fire.

The quantity of oil in the dual-clutch gearbox may be too high.This can result in impaired torque transmission and potentially increased CO2 emissions.In addition, in extreme driving situations, gearbox oil might leak onto the road, posing a risk to the following traffic.Moreover, the leaking gearbox oil might come into contact with hot components, increasing the risk of fire.

The adjustable second seat row might not be correctly latched onto the seat rail on one side. As a result, the fastening of the second seat row might not be ensured in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

The side spoilers on the boot lid may not be properly affixed. As a result, a spoiler could detach completely while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of an accident.

The front wheel-arch covers may not have been attached correctly. As a result, a wheel-arch cover could detach completely while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of an accident.

A screw connection in the passenger airbag module and the airbag fabric may be defective. As a result, the airbag fabric could tear at the point of the screw connection if the airbag is deployed in very high temperatures. This could reduce the restraint effect of the airbag, increasing the risk of injury in the event of an accident. In addition, the burning rate of the airbag fabric may be too high.

The window airbags may be defective and could be damaged and not deploy as intended when they are activated. As a result, the protective effect of the airbags could be impaired, increasing the risk of injury in the event of an accident.

The software in the airbag control unit may not correctly identify the trigger points of the safety belt load limiters (driver and passenger seats).This could increase the risk of injury to the occupants of the vehicle in the event of a frontal collision that triggers the restraint system.
