The product poses a risk of injuries because in those cars equipped with a back drum brake, this particular element may be inappropriately fastened. In extreme circumstances, all four screws onto which the wheel hub is fixed can come loose. This can lead to driving difficulties and loss of stability, which could cause a road accident.
