Urea monitoring test may not run often enough
A fault in the urea consumption monitoring system may prevent its diagnostic test from running often enough to detect low urea use or a blocked injector. The emissions system may not be checked properly, and the vehicle may fail to meet emissions standards. The recall remedy is to recall the product from end users.
Official EU Safety Gate text
- Component
- Environment
- Defect
- Certain vehicles equipped with the DW10F Euro 6.4 engine may have a defect in the system that monitors urea consumption. Because of this issue, the diagnostic test intended to detect problems such as low urea use or a blocked injector may not run often enough. This increases the risk that the emissions system will not be properly checked, which could lead the vehicle to fall short of the required emissions standards. 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.

Hydrogen tank may leak
Hydrogen may leak from the tank. While driving, detection shuts off the fuel-cell system, leaving battery power with about 30 km of range and no onboard hydrogen recharge. When parked, sensors do not operate, so hydrogen may build up and catch fire. The recall remedy is to recall the product from end users.
Official EU Safety Gate text
- Component
- Fire
- Defect
- A hydrogen leak can occur between the tank’s outer cover and the protective lining. If the vehicle’s hydrogen sensors detect the leak while driving, the fuel-cell system will shut off. The vehicle will then only run in electric (battery) mode, with a very limited range of about 30 km and no ability to recharge hydrogen on board.If the vehicle is parked, the hydrogen sensors do not operate. In this case, hydrogen could build up under the vehicle which increases the risk of hydrogen catching 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.
