Why it's dangerous
Fire
The fuel hose may have been incorrectly routed during assembly, causing it to come into contact with the engine belt pulley. This contact could damage the hose and result in fuel leaking or spraying into the engine compartment or surrounding areas, potentially leading to a fire if the fuel reaches hot surfaces.
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.
