Car Recall Check

Cell modules in the high-voltage battery may have been incorrectly manufactured, resulting in a possible malfunction in the high-voltage battery and a short circuit. The diagnostic function of the battery management system may not detect this short circuit. The State of Charge status would not be reduced by this function, increasing the risk of fire, including when the vehicle is parked. 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 hollow shaft of the servomotor has been welded incorrectly. The weld may not be able to withstand high braking pressure build-up and may break. In this case, the reduced braking performance requires greater force and the braking distance may increase. In addition, the ABS and DSC brake control systems are not assisted. This increases 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.

A quality check showed that cell modules of the high-voltage battery may not have been manufactured to specification and therefore malfunctions may occur in the high-voltage battery. In certain situations, it cannot be ruled out that these malfunctions will lead to a short circuit in the high-voltage battery. A vehicle fire, even when parked, is possible in extremely rare cases. 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.
