What the authority reported

Due to a defect in the engine control unit (inverter) in vehicles equipped with electrified dual-clutch transmission (e-DCT), metal soldering residues may pass into the unit. This can cause internal electric short circuits which, can lead to continuous power supply and overheating due to a blocked relay, and cause a fire.

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.
