As a result, fragments of the bolt could block the differential gear and hence the front wheels. This could affect the control over the vehicle and increase the risk of an accident. In addition, the gear casing could be damaged and oil could leak onto the road, posing a risk to the following traffic.
The Mercedes-Benz EQC models affected by this recall were manufactured until November 2019.
