Defect
On diesel vehicles, the flange used to secure the urea solution injector to the exhaust front pipe is made of an inappropriate material. Rust may cause the flange to crack and detach. When this occurs, the urea solution injector also detaches, and exhaust emissions may no longer meet the required standards.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the front pipe with a conforming replacement part.
