2021-22 MG HS PHEV and MG HS +EV: carpet underlay could cause vehicle fire

In May 2023, recall campaign RMGHSEVPTC was issued for 2021-22 MG HS PHEV and MG HS +EV vehicles. Due to a manufacturing defect, a carpet underlay may be positioned between the nut and the electrical ground stud. Due to vibrations whilst driving the nut could loosen overtime and this could cause the wiring beneath the floor to overheat and cause a fire inside the vehicle. A vehicle fire posed a risk of injury to vehicle occupants, other road users and bystanders. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-005652.
