What is the danger

The upper suspension arm does not fit properly on the bearing block due to missing recesses at the corners of the mounting plate. This can cause preload and overstraining of the mounting plate bolt connection, leading to a fatigue failure.

Requirements breached

Failure of the entire bolt connection can impair the wheel control and steerability, increasing the risk of an accident.
