Recalls: MINI F60 Countryman
2016-18 MINI F60 Countryman: protection plate for high pressure fuel pump omitted
In September 2018, recall campaign 00 13 9002 00 was issued for MINI F60 Countryman vehicles that were available for sale in Australia from 30 December 2016 to 13 August 2018. Due to an error in the releasing process in an engine production plant, a crash protection plate for the high pressure fuel pump was not installed in three-cylinder B36/B38 petrol engines. In a severe front collision, the fuel pump could become damaged – this could cause a fuel leak and posed a fire hazard. For the VINs of the recalled MINI F60 Countryman vehicles, please see PRA 2018/17018.
