What are the defects?
Due to production deviation the tightening torque may be too low on the front torque rods of the front axle with air suspension.
What are the hazards?
Low clamping force on the joint may lead to screws shearing and the torque rods coming off. This will affect the ability to control the vehicle and may pose a hazard to the driver and other road users.
