A12/00956/21Safety recallInjuriesno date · EU Safety Gate

The fuel feeding impeller in the fuel pump, which is made of resin material, may be swollen and deformed due to the insufficient material density caused by the improper injection molding process. Consequently, the impeller may interfere with the fuel pump housing, resulting in the fuel pump malfunction. As a result, the engine could stop while driving, increasing the risk of an accident. The product does not comply with the requirements laid down in 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.

Information, not an expert opinion

We write the descriptions, and we put the source next to them. A person reviews them before they go out. They are still information, not a technical expert opinion.

  • A fault on the list does not mean the car you are looking at has it.
  • A fault missing from the list does not mean the model is fault-free. Write-ups are made model by model. Not all of them are done.
  • You decide whether to buy. This is no substitute for an inspection. That needs a workshop and a history check.
