| Defect | ② In the Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF) pipe, due to improper routing instructions, there are instances where the clearance between it and the electrode protective cap of the Belt-driven Starter Generator (BSG) is insufficient. As a result, electrical leakage occurs from the protective cap to the GPF pipe, causing the BSG electrode protective cap and the GPF pipe to overheat and be damaged. If use is continued as is, in the worst case, there is a risk of fire. |
| Component | Other (Emissions/Noise) |
| Recall type | Vehicle |
| Remedy | ② For all vehicles, inspect the clearance between the BSG electrode protective cap and the GPF pipe, and if the clearance is insufficient, correct the routing of the GPF pipe. Furthermore, if the GPF pipe is damaged, replace the GPF pipe with a new one. |
