OPEL · Passenger car – Corsa D
This product poses a risk of injuries because the intermediate shafts of the steering systems that are not sufficiently robust may break under high stress (when parking). This defect results from a temporary discrepancy in the production process at the manufacturers. The defective shafts can be identified by the date of production, which is printed on them.
