RJ-0845-0

On certain vehicles, the brackets securing the rear suspension arms, which are welded on the rear axle housings, may not be properly welded, and therefore there is a risk that they will come off the welded sections. If this occurs, the brake tubes, which are secured on the brackets, will shake from driving vibration etc. and may cause the joint connected to the rear wheel cylinders to become loose, which could allow brake fluid to leak, resulting in reduced braking efficiency.
