Notices from the French consumer authority (DGCCRF) linked to this model, collected on 29 October 2026.

  • 22 July 2025 — Un boulon sur la pompe à haute pression peut être défectueux, ce qui pourrait nuire à la fonction d’étanchéité entre la pompe à haute pression et la pompe à huile tandem. En conséquence, le pétrole et le carburant peuvent fuir sur la route, ce qui représente un risque pour le trafic suivant. De plus, le pétrole et le carburant pourraient entrer en contact avec des pièces de moteur chaudes, augmentant ainsi le risque d’incendie.
