Defect
The seal plugs on the front and rear faces of the fuel engine cylinder head are improperly assembled. Continued use may cause the plugs to fall out, allowing engine oil to leak and resulting in engine seizure and loss of mobility. In the worst case, leaked oil contacting the exhaust pipe may cause a vehicle fire.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, add a retaining bracket to prevent the seal plugs from falling out.
