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.
One or more bolts on the bottom cover of the power distribution board can break and may lead to various electrical malfunctions. This can lead to the vehicle catching fire due to an increased resistance. 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.
Some seat screws may not be properly tightened, leading the seat to become loose. This can make the restraining devices less effective, increasing the risk of injury. 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.
During installation of the high-security locks, metal shavings from the B-pillar may have damaged the seatbelt.

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 fuel line may chafe against surrounding components and develop a leak. Fuel leaking onto hot components in the engine compartment may ignite and cause a fire. 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 front suspension bolt may have been overtightened during manufacturing, weakening it over time. If the bolt breaks, steering control and braking performance may be reduced, 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 handbrake may slip, causing a complete loss of holding power. This could allow the vehicle to roll away unintentionally, 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.
A contact between the coupling nut of the brake line and the fuel tank may cause a leak in one of the brake lines. This can lead the fuel tank to become damaged and fuel to leak, creating a risk of fire. 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.
Insufficient distance between the wiring harness and the transmission housing may result in damage to cables. The power-assisted steering may fail. There is a risk of fire due to short circuits and a risk of accidents. 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 rear axle may not be sufficiently lubricated, leading to a malfunction of the wheel bearings which can cause the rear wheels to lock.
