What is the danger
The product poses a risk of injuries because water that turns into ice at low temperatures can get into the EGR valve damaging the valve and making it leaky. The valve is located on the intake manifold and plays a key role in reducing unwanted engine emissions. When the valve is flawed it can cause excessive emissions of exhaust gasses, engine's choking and stalling while accelerating and finally lowering efficiency of the braking system.
