Volkswagen Group Ireland Limited recalls certain Audi A4, A6, A8 and TT passenger vehicles 

2 October 2023

Volkswagen Group Ireland Limited (Audi Ireland) is carrying out a voluntary recall of certain Audi A4, A6, A8 and TT passenger vehicles.

A safety issue has been identified whereby driver-airbag gas generators from the original manufacturer Takata (‘NADI’ (non-azide driver inflator) generators) produced during 1997-1999 may be faulty. Internal investigations have shown that in the event of an accident the restraining effect of the deployed driver airbag might not always be fully guaranteed. Compliance with the statutory requirements in force for protection by an airbag in the event of an accident is thus not ensured.

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) recalls certain S-Class vehicles.

6 September 2023

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) is carrying out a voluntary recall on certain S-Class vehicles.

A safety issue has been identified whereby the screw connection in the fuse box of the engine compartment could not meet the specifications. This could increase the electrical transition resistance at that connection. Consequently, an increase in temperature and therefore a risk of fire cannot be completely ruled out. In the event of an open circuit, the vehicle could lose propulsion when being driven. This would increase the risk of accident and injury, and the legal requirements would not be met. Furthermore, an impact on the exhaust emissions cannot be ruled out.

There are 28 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 15 April 2020 and 14 October 2022.

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) recalls certain C-Class vehicles.

1 August 2023

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) is carrying out a voluntary recall on certain C-Class vehicles.

A safety issue has been identified whereby in certain C-Class vehicles (BR 206) the screw connections on certain 12V and 48V ground points may have been secured with insufficient torque. In this case the wiring harness may not be properly secured and as a result the electrical resistance of the connection could increase. The temperature may therefore rise in this area, so the risk of fire cannot be completely ruled out. In addition, the electric powertrain could become deactivated in plug-in hybrid variants, whereby the impact this could have on exhaust emissions and electric range cannot be ruled out.

There are 39 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 30 June 2021 and 6 June 2023.

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) recalls certain C-Class vehicles.

23 May 2023

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) is carrying out a voluntary recall on certain C-Class vehicles.

A safety issue has been identified whereby in certain C-Class vehicles (BR 206) equipped with 4-cylinder diesel engines, the adhesion force of the fuel supply line may not meet the specifications. This means that the fuel supply line could slip from its connection despite being correctly locked into position. As a result, fuel could leak, and the pressure in the fuel supply line could fall. This could lead to misfires or even the sudden shutdown of the engine while driving. Furthermore, leaking fuel could pose a risk to following traffic, and the legal framework conditions might not be met.

There are 129 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 8 October 2020 and 12 September 2022.

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) recalls certain Sprinter vehicles

A safety issue has been identified whereby in certain vehicles of the Sprinter (907) series with engine OM651, under specific conditions and over time external fluid could enter the glow time amplifier. In such cases an internal short circuit of the glow time amplifier and consequently a potential fire risk to the parked vehicle cannot be ruled out.

There are 706 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 22 March 2018 and 30 August 2019.

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) recalls certain Sprinter vehicles

19 April 2023

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) is carrying out a voluntary recall on certain Sprinter vehicles.

A safety issue has been identified whereby in certain vehicles, the design of the fuse of the fan for the heating, ventilation and air conditioning system might not meet the requirements for continuous operation on the highest fan setting. This could lead to an increase in the contact resistance between the fuse and the fuse holder, resulting in the generation of excessive heat at the contact. A risk of fire during operation and consequently a risk of injury cannot be ruled out.

There are 1436 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 22 March 2017 and 2 November 2020.

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) recalls certain EQB vehicles

19 April 2023

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) is carrying out a voluntary recall on certain EQB vehicles.

A safety issue has been identified whereby in the vehicles concerned, the material characteristics of the upper B-pillar cladding and of the beltline casing may not meet the specifications. As a result, an accident involving the activation of the windowbag due to breakage of the B-pillar cladding could create sharp edges which could damage the air cushion of the windowbag, thereby reducing the latter’s restraining effect. Furthermore, a crash could result in broken or fragmented parts, which could be projected around the vehicle interior. This would increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants.

There are 2 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 28 June 2022 and 2 August 2022.

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) recalls certain GLE, GLS-classe vehicles

5 April 2023

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) is carrying out a voluntary recall on certain GLE, GLS-classe vehicles.

A safety issue has been identified whereby on certain vehicles, the condensate drain hoses of the air-conditioning system may not be correctly installed. In that case, condensate from the air conditioning system could enter the passenger compartment of the vehicle. Condensate could enter the left or right foot well and could cause corrosion of the electrical components installed there and/or lead to short-circuits or leakage currents. Consequently, a short-circuit fire cannot be ruled out. Furthermore, the automatic emergency call (eCall) could fail, the vehicle could fail to unlock and/or start, and the engine emergency operation mode could also be activated during driving. This would increase the risk of injury and accident.

There are 161vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 29 August 2018 and 2 February 2021.

A safety issue has been identified whereby the adhesive bonding between the glass panel and the frame of the sliding roof may not meet the relevant specifications. In such cases, the bonding could loosen over time, and the glass panel may not stay permanently attached to the vehicle for the lifetime of the vehicle. As a result, the glass panel could become completely detached from the vehicle, increasing the risk of accident and injury for other road users. Local legal requirements might not be complied with.

There are 204 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 24 January 2000 and 23 December 2010.

22 February 2023

Motor Distributors Limited (Mercedes-Benz) is carrying out a voluntary recall on certain Vito, Vito Tourer & V-Class vehicles.

A safety issue has been identified whereby the drainage pipe for the fuel filter is laid may not be compliant with the specifications. This could lead to the drainage pipe butting up against the underbody panelling and rubbing during driving, which, in turn, could lead to leakage of diesel and a clearly perceptible smell of fuel. The leak could worsen over time. Depending on the volume of fuel leaking out, the risk of accident for following traffic could also increase. Local legal requirements might not be complied with. The risk of fire can be ruled out as there are no hot components close to the drainage pipe or in areas where leaking fuel could possibly collect.

There are 325 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 2 July 2020 and 27 April 2022.

A safety issue has been identified whereby there is a potential for conductive fibrous shavings from the drive motors’ slip ring assembly to momentarily cause a short circuit between the two slip rings. The fibrous shavings are instantaneously burnt out resulting in no damage to any components.

Toyota Ireland recalls certain Toyota BZ4X model vehicles

22 November 2023

Toyota Ireland is carrying out a voluntary recall of certain Toyota BZ4X vehicles.

The subject vehicles are equipped with a combination meter system containing an electronic control unit (ECU), where various information is displayed (warning and indicator lights, vehicle gauges, messages, etc.) in a multi-information display, and a DCM (Data Communication Module). The DCM communicates with the meter ECU to check vehicle status within a certain amount of time after the power switch is turned off. If the communication between the DCM and the meter ECU occurs at the time the meter ECU executes a certain process, the meter ECU may not complete that process. If this occurs, the display will become blank after a new key cycle and will not display certain telltales and indicators. Because the meter ECU also interfaces with other functions, such as turn signal lamps, hazard lights and the Pre-Collision System, those functions will be deactivated. As a result, the vehicle may not meet certain requirements of European regulations. Driving without these functions may result in an increased risk of a crash in certain driving conditions.

There are 1275 affected vehicles in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 2nd November 2021 to 7th August 2023.

If there is minor impact to the lower front bumper cover during normal vehicle operation, some of the mounting tabs could detach, and the retention force of the remaining attachment points may become compromised. In this condition, the lower bumper cover, the engine under cover, and the fender liners may detach from the vehicle while driving, which could become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash or injury for other road users.

There are 178 affected vehicles in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 6th December 2019 to 29th August 2023.

A safety issue has been identified whereby The subject vehicles are equipped with a DCM (Data Communication Module) designed by a specific supplier. In addition to other data related services, this DCM supports an emergency calling system (eCall), which enables emergency calls to be made manually, or in the event of certain severe crashes, automatically. Due to the software programming for the DCM memory capacity, there is a possibility that the DCM may not complete the shutdown process within a specific period of time when the ignition is turned off, causing the DCM to not restart at the next ignition cycle and making the eCall function unavailable. If this condition occurs, there is no warning to the vehicle occupant that the in-vehicle system cannot place an emergency call. As a result, the vehicles do not comply with EU regulation 2015/758.

There are 2684 affected vehicles in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 9 October 2020 and 4 August 2023.

If the accelerator pedal is rapidly pressed to further accelerate the vehicle after it has been continuously driven in “EV mode” in cold temperature and the HV battery voltage decreases, the voltage may drop rapidly below a specified threshold. If this occurs, the vehicle will display a warning message and the hybrid system will shut down, resulting in loss of motive power.
