On certain vehicles with continuous variable transmission, the torque of the bolt securing the bearing retainer plate inside the continuous variable transmission is insufficient. If left unfixed, the bolt may become loose and cause abnormal noise, and at worst it could fall out, in which case it could be caught between the teeth of the reduction gear or the mission case could break leading to oil leakage, and in both cases the vehicle will stall.
