RJ-2088-0

(1) For the hydraulic power steering unit, the low pressure side hose may be deformed due to an improper manufacturing process and may crack due to the pressure movement caused by steering, allowing the oil to leak. If this occurs, in the worst case, the oil may deposit on the exhaust pipe and cause a fire. (2) The A/T shift cable may not be properly routed, and therefore, it may interfere with the brake pipe due to vibration during traveling. If this problem is left unattended, the anti-rust agent may be scraped off and rust may occur. If the rust develops and causes a hole, the brake fluid might leak, which would cause a reduction in braking efficiency.
