What the authority reported
Excessive ageing and contamination of engine oil can cause damage to the engine bearings, exacerbated by poor maintenance and use of non-approved oils. This can lead to significant engine damage, including fires. The risk is particularly elevated when mandatory maintenance intervals are exceeded, and the sensitivity of the engine's lead-free main bearings to contaminated oil increases the likelihood of severe failures, causing the piston rod to breach the crankcase.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
