Hazard

In medium-sized buses, improper routing of electrical wiring in the engine compartment causes interference with bolts that secure the muffler. Continued operation in this condition may result in wiring insulation damage and short circuits due to vehicle vibration during driving, potentially causing rear lighting to fail or preventing engine start.
