Due to the inappropriate material of the auxiliary drive belt, the drive belt pulley may wear obliquely. As a consequence, the auxiliary drive belt could become damaged and come off the pulley. If the vehicle is driven in this condition, the battery would become depleted and the engine could overheat. In vehicles with an oil pressure power-steering system, the steering effort could increase as a result of no power assistance.
The recall concerns model year 2008 – 2011 vehicles.
The recall affects models ASX (2011), Lancer, Lancer Sportback, Evolution (2008 – 2011) a Outlander (2006 – 2011).
