Hazard
Inadequate manufacturing control of the rear hub has resulted in foreign material contamination during the manufacturing process, causing insufficient strength in some units. Continued use may lead to cracks developing in the hub due to vibration during operation, and in the worst case, hub fracture and wheel detachment.
