European Union 2011–2014

Opel Zafira

null Owing to a defective CNG tank fill-stop valve, natural gas can escape during and after filling of the tank and even after the engine has been switched off. Morever, fragments of a defective valve may impair the function of the low pressure regulator.
European Union 2014

Opel Corsa, Adam

null The intermediate shaft of the steering system may break while driving, resulting in the loss of steering control.
European Union 2014

Opel Meriva-B

null Because of a production fault involving the passenger airbag, there can be a release of hot gas when the bag is deployed. This can lead to eye injuries. European Union 2011

Opel Combo Cargo

null The vehicle was manufactured without a third obligatory brake light. In heavy traffic conditions, the absence of the third brake light may cause an accident because the driver of the vehicle behind may react less quickly.
European Union 2001–2003

Opel Agila

null In certain situations, the mechanism triggering the driver's air-bag may malfunction.
European Union 2007–2010

Opel Opel GT

null Under certain conditions, there is a risk that the ignition switch may move out of the “run” position, resulting in a partial loss of electrical power and turning off the engine. When the ignition switch is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing…
European Union 2009–2010

Opel Zafira

null The distance between the LPG components and the exhaust system is too small. Unobserved gas leaks leading to a fire outbreak after the vehicle has been parked cannot be ruled out.
European Union

Opel Meriva

null Heat treatment of steering rack was not applied correctly during manufacturing. Rack of steering gear may break under high load.
European Union

Opel COMBO

null There is a possibility that the connector on the brake servo vacuum hose could crack while the engine is running, resulting in a potential reduction in braking performance. This could lead to a traffic accident occurring.
European Union

Opel Antara

null Incorrect brake fluid might cause corrosion in the hydraulic ABS unit leading to a sticking valve and resulting in a longer brake pedal travel and a longer stopping distance, which may cause an accident, resulting in injuries to the passengers.
European Union

Opel Zafira C

null The product poses a risk of injuries because if an accident occurs with deployment of the passenger airbag, the airbag flap may not open correctly. In worst cases, parts of the airbag flap may become detached by the airbag deployment.
European Union

Opel Zafira

null On some vehicles, compressed natural gas (CNG) valves have been fitted which, as a result of production variations, have an incorrect internal diameter. This can cause natural gas to escape from the CNG cylinders leading to a fire hazard.
European Union

Opel

null Temperature fluctuations during the filling process (-20° to +40°) may damage the paint on the compressed natural gas (CNG) cylinders, resulting in corrosion. In extreme cases, this may cause natural gas to leak from the CNG cylinders.
European Union

Opel

null The lower joint of the steering column intermediate shaft may be incorrectly assembled to the steering gear. In the worst case, the intermediate shaft may become detached from the steering gear resulting in loss of control of the vehicle which could lead to an accident.
European Union

Opel

null Due to a production fault, there is a possibility of leakage from the fuel tank.
European Union

Opel

null The engine speed might increase while the engine is idling without pressing the accelerator pedal. If the driver is distracted and changes to first gear when this happens, the vehicle could start moving much faster than normally.
European Union

Opel

null The product poses a risk of injuries because on certain vehicles the handbrake lever may not have been manufactured to the exact specification, possibly leading to the handbrake not holding in the pulled/parking position, due to the missing heat treatment on the tooth segment of the handbrake lever.
European Union

Opel

null Possible damage caused to the rear wheel bearing in the coupling during assembly may in the worst case cause breakage of the rear wheel bearing.
European Union

Opel

null Fuel tank corrosion may occur. The paint of the fuel tank can delaminate from the underlying coating and in severe cases this might lead to perforation of the fuel tank resulting in fuel leaks.
European Union

Opel

null The product poses a risk of injuries because, owing to a BCM software problem, the indication of a failure of the indicator on the driver's information centre may not function correctly. There is a possible risk of accident when changing direction.
