The turbine blades of the turbocharger do not have sufficient strength, and therefore, if the vehicle is suddenly accelerated many times while the turbocharger is operating at the maximum revolutions, the turbine blades may resonate and be damaged. If this problem is left unattended, the engine power may decrease and/or abnormal noise may be heard, and in the worst case, the turbine shaft could break, producing white smoke, and this could adversely affect other traffic.

The ball joint sockets of the suspension lower arms do not have sufficient strength, and therefore, they may crack when the vehicle is repeatedly driven on uneven road surface caused by snow or frost etc. If this problem is left unattended, the cracks can grow, and the ball joint could come off the lower arm, causing the vehicle to stall.

There is a glitch in the computer program that controls the engine, and because of it, the engine revs could rise (though rarely) when the steering wheel and the shift lever are operated while the vehicle is stopped with the heater turned on. If this happens, in the worst case, the vehicle starts to move.

Engine vibration while driving on a bumpy road etc. may cause a crack on the joint securing the hydraulic pipe on the power steering hydraulic pump due to improper shape of the pipe. Power steering fluid can leak from the crack resulting in heavier steering.

On certain vehicles with diesel engine, the blade grooves on the rotor in the vacuum pump, which generates negative pressure for the vacuum brake booster, are defective in manufacturing. If left unfixed, the carbon blades wear, and in the worst case, they could get damaged, in which case negative pressure can not be generated resulting in reduced braking efficiency.
