Lotus Evora: Oil May Leak

Recalling firm

LOTUS

Product

Vehicles: LOTUS EVORA. Units affected: 187

Reason

An oil cooler pipe may have insufficient room to move freely. As a result the pipe will abrade. If the concern remains unnoticed oil can leak in the engine bay with an increased risk of fire. Additionally oil can leak onto the road and cause a loss of control to the subject vehicle and other road users. If the driver does not heed the low oil pressure warnings then engine damage could occur. Remedy: Recall all affected vehicles and replace the oil cooler pipes with a modified oil cooler pipe kit.
