Defect

On the intercooler piping of turbocharged engines, the clamp force securing the intercooler hose to the intake pipe is insufficient on some units. As a result, the hose cannot withstand intake air pressure and separates from the intake pipe. This may cause black smoke emissions to exceed the Safety Standards limit.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the intercooler hose and intake pipe with corrected parts.
