The welding of the air spring brackets for the front wheels does not have sufficient strength, and some of it may come off from vehicle vibration, making the brackets unstable. If this occurs, the pipes supplying air to the air springs may be damaged, and in the worst case, the damaged pipes would allow air to leak, which could put the vehicle out of operation.
