What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states that the defect may cause carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury or death. This aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or structural defects posing a high risk of serious harm.
