On certain vehicles, the brake pipe between the brake master cylinder and the actuator is deformed during installation. If left unfixed, the brake pipe may interfere with the power steering hydraulic pipe due to engine vibration, and the pipe may get damaged. At worst, this could cause brake fluid leakage resulting in reduced braking efficiency.
