What is the danger

Due to inadequate sealing, water may penetrate into the Bowden cables in the driver’s or front passenger's door and impair the movement of the cable’s inner wire at temperatures below the freezing point. As a result, the doors may open inadvertently, increasing the risk of an accident.
