Reported risk: For vehicles fitted with Dynamic Response System (DRS) it is possible that the positive battery cable could come in contact with the DRS fluid supply pipes. If this condition occurs the positive battery lead could chaff on the DRS pipe which will then lead to DRS pipes becoming positively charged. Should the charge find an earth then localised melting of components could occur due to heat generation. This could ultimately result in a vehicle fire. Remedy: Recall all affected vehicles to check and if necessary replace the positive battery cable then reroute the cable.
