Defect
In the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system, the EGR cooler and EGR valve housing are made of materials that are inadequate for the application. Exhaust gas condensate causes corrosion in these components. Corrosion debris may become trapped in the EGR valve, or the EGR valve housing may develop perforations. This leads to incomplete combustion and may result in engine stall and inability to restart.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the EGR cooler and replace it with the corrected/revised part. Also replace the EGR valve housing on all vehicles with the corrected/revised part.
