Why it was recalled
According to the RAPEX notice, the identified hazard is: Conductive fibrous shavings from the slip ring assembly of the drive motors may cause a short circuit between the two slip rings, resulting in an overcurrent detected in the inverter. As a result, engine torque is cut to protect internal components of the controller, resulting in a loss of drive and potentially an "EV System Off" display on the dashboard, increasing the risk of an accident. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
