Volkswagen Polo

The problem

The rear axle was not screwed to the body with the required torque, which may result in it coming loose or in loss of control and skewing of the rear wheels. This may increase the risk of accidents and injuries.

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.
