What the notice says today
The defect
The cable tree of the contact lock may be too close to the ball head and/or too tightly attached to a cable bond, causing the wires to eventually break. (Dutch: De kabelboom van het contactslot zit mogelijk te dicht bij het balhoofd en/of te strak vast met een kabelbinder, waardoor de draden uiteindeljk kunnen breken.)
The consequence
This can lead to a sudden loss of drive during driving, which increases the risk of an accident. (Dutch: Dit kan tijdens het rijden leiden tot een plotseling verlies van aandrijving, wat het risico op een ongeval vergroot.)
What will be done
The vehicle owner is asked to contact the brand dealer. This will perform an over-the-air update that will ensure the system displays a warning in case of a cable break and switches to limited power. If this problem occurs, the necessary repairs will be carried out free of charge. (Dutch: De voertuigeigenaar wordt verzocht contact op te nemen met de merkdealer. Deze voert een over-the-air-update uit die ervoor zorgt dat het systeem bij een kabelbreuk een waarschuwing toont en overschakelt naar beperkt vermogen. Als dit probleem zich voordoet, worden de benodigde reparaties kostenloos uitgevoerd.)
