What is the danger
In certain vehicles with a calliper disc-brake system, the bolts of the brake callipers on the front axle may not meet the specifications. A brake calliper can detach during braking, which may lead to braking power being reduced and components being lost. That would increase the potential risk of accidents, including for the following traffic.
