The electrical connector of the transmission wiring harness may not have been correctly processed. This can lead to water entering the connector, which could cause short circuit and can create a thermal overload of the connector when the vehicle is parked, causing the risk of fire. Production: 07.06.2017 - 20.04.2022. Types: 212; R1EAMG; R1EC; R1ECLS; R1ES; e1*2001/116*0501*32-57; e1*2007/46*1560*05-30; e1*2007/46*1666*02-24; e1*2007/46*1818*00-17; e1*2007/46*1878*00-17.
The airbag control unit may not be encoded correctly. In the event of a rear-end crash the pyro-fuse activator may not properly isolate the high-voltage battery, increasing the risk of fire. Production: 22.11.2021 - 23.02.2022. Types: e1*2018/858*00036*00 (E2EQEW).
The 48V ground cable bolt in the engine compartment may be incorrectly secured. This could increase electrical transition resistance at the point of connection. As a result, the high electrical currents that can flow through this connection could increase the temperature, increasing the risk of fire. Furthermore, the 48V electrical power supply failure may increase exhaust emissions. This could have a negative impact on the environment. Production: 01.07.2021 - 06.04.2023. Types: 212, R1ES, R1ECLS, R1EAMG; e1*2001/116*0501*51-*60, e1*2007/46*1560*24-*33, e1*2007/46*1818*14-*19, e1*2007/46*1878*11-*20.
