The risk associated with the product is that of injuries, FUEL injection and ENG ignition stop, and in the worst case, the engine stalls during riding.

For DCT vehicles, resetting the FI-ECU operation disconnects CAN communication with the DCT-ECU, causing the clutch to be disengaged, resulting in loss of driving force.

There are approximately 84 affected products sold in the Republic of Ireland.
