Mercedes-Benz Actros

The problem

A software fault may cause a pressure line to freeze, preventing the system from reaching cutoff pressure. This can lead to mechanical failure, potentially causing the connecting rod to break and puncture the casing. Oil leakage may occur if the compressor’s core hole covering fails.

The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
