Hazard

The rear electronics control unit has been manually programmed with incorrect values, which could lead to a changed position of the rear spoiler and a change in aerodynamics at high speeds. This could impact the vehicle’s driving stability, potentially resulting in greater downforce and additional load on the tyres, leading to tyre damage. Additionally, the top brake light may become less visible to following traffic, increasing the risk of an accident. 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.
