The tightening of the ball joint nuts of the front lower control arm may be insufficient due to a processing defect. The first signs thereof are an abnormal noise (clicking and/or knocking sounds) detected at low mileage. One of the connections between the wheel and the frame of the vehicle may be lost, which could cause the vehicle to veer off course, leading to accidents.
