On certain vehicles, the hydraulic booster sub return hose for power steering may interfere with the heater hose clips and be pulled, when the cab is tilted, because it is installed in a twisted position. If left unfixed, in the worst case, the hose comes off causing oil leakage, and this may result in reduced steering control and brake efficiency.
