Hazard

In the suspension system, the lower arm mounting bolts are insufficiently torqued. Under road impact during driving, these bolts may loosen and cause noise. If use continues in this state, play develops at the mounting point. During sudden braking, sharp cornering, or other abrupt maneuvers, tire position may shift, compromising driving stability.
