⚠️ Riziko

The product poses a risk of fire because of sound insulator underneath the front seatbelt retractor with pyrotechnic pretensioner, located at the bottom of the center pillar. There is a possibility that the sound insulator may become damaged by the high temperature gas generated from the seat belt pretensioner when it is activated in the event of a crash. In the worst case, if the insulator ignites, this condition may result in a post-collision fire.
