For vehicles with manual transmission, the metal retainer for the propeller shaft centre bearing does not have sufficient strength. For this reason, the retainer may get break causing the bearing to come off, and in the worst case, causing the vehicle to stall, if the vehicle is frequently driven in a way that needs a large torque output, such as rapid acceleration from low speed and sudden acceleration.
