What is the danger
The internal tie rods used for the front axle steering may not have been intended for the type of vehicle, and thus, could be too short. In such a case, the rods could be bent or pulled out in the event of an additional, sudden force. This would impair the steerability of the vehicle, increasing the risk of an accident.
