Defect

On diesel-powered vehicles, the intake duct has insufficient strength. Stress concentrates at the duct's clamp attachment points, causing cracks to develop. These cracks allow intake air and blowby gas to leak. As a result, the engine warning lamp illuminates and the vehicle may suffer reduced acceleration.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the intake duct and clamp with corrected parts.
