Requirements breached

Under certain circumstances, where the automatic lowering system is activated, the vehicle may potentially skid. This potential loss of traction on both rear axles could also occur in situations of high loss of air or a large leak in the compressed air system. This situation may potentially endanger the safety of traffic and the immediate vicinity of the vehicle and increase the risk of an accident.
