| Defect | 1. Regarding the electrode protective cap of the Belt-driven Starter Generator (BSG), due to insufficient material consideration, insulation is inadequate. 2. Regarding the Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF) pipe, due to improper routing instructions, there are instances where the clearance with the BSG's electrode protective cap is insufficient. As a result, electrical leakage may occur from the protective cap to the GPF pipe, causing the BSG's electrode protective cap and the GPF pipe to overheat and be damaged. If use is continued, in the worst case, it may lead to a fire. |
| Component | Engine (Belt-driven Starter Generator), soot, malodorous gases, harmful gases |
| Recall type | Vehicle |
| Remedy | 1. For all vehicles, replace the BSG's electrode protective cap with an improved part. 2. For all vehicles, inspect the clearance between the BSG's electrode protective cap and the GPF pipe. If the clearance is insufficient, correct the routing of the GPF pipe. If the GPF pipe is damaged, replace it with a new one. |
