Volvo · Passenger car C30, S40 and V50

The product poses a risk of injuries because the cover on top of the engine could chafe against the brake vacuum hose. If this occurs, it may lead to a vacuum leak in the brake booster system and a gradual reduction of brake booster assistance. This would lead to the brake pedal becoming harder to push than normal and increased force would be required to stop the car.
