Hazard

In two-wheel drive diesel vehicles, the front pipe mounting bracket of the exhaust pipe has insufficient strength, and in vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions, the main muffler mounting bracket has defective machining. If use continues in this condition, vibrations from the engine may cause the mounting bracket to fracture, and in the worst case, the exhaust pipe may rupture and exhaust gas may leak.
