3. Hazard Information

The recall is issued due to a non-compliance with EU regulations. The specific hazard is environmental in nature. Vehicles fitted with the SDE 1.3 litre engine (Euro 6b) may produce excessive nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. This occurs because part of the emissions system can become less effective over time and may not regenerate properly due to software settings.

The product does not comply with the Regulation on type approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information.
