What is this? Some Cupra and Seat cars may have a heat shield that was put on wrong. This can let the exhaust get too hot near the brake fluid tank.
What's happening? The heat can melt the brake fluid tank nozzle. This could cause brake fluid to leak and start a fire.
Does this affect me? If you own or drive a Cupra or Seat León, Formentor, or similar model in Spain or Ireland, check if your car is part of this issue.
What should I do? Take your car to a Cupra or Seat dealer right away. Ask your dealer to check and fix the heat shield.
