For front propeller shafts of 4WD vehicles, the transfer side universal joint does not have sufficient heat resistance. If the temperature of the joint increases due to the heat created during high load travelling such as when high speed travelling or uphill travelling, the grease may prematurely lose lubricating property. If this problem is left unattended, the joint may wear further, causing rattling and abnormal noise, and in the worst case, the joint could break, which would make it impossible to drive the vehicle.

For ambulances, the rubber diaphragm inside the brake booster does not have sufficient heat resistance, and therefore, it may deteriorate from heat and subsequently crack. If this problem is left unattended, the cracks may advance, which could adversely affect the performance of the brake booster, making braking distance longer.

For the combination lamps, the red lenses for the lights that serve both as rear lights and brake lights do not have sufficient weatherability, and therefore, the red colour of the lenses can gradually fade from long exposure to the strong sunlight. If this occurs, the colour of the lenses may not comply with the safety standard.

On certain vehicles, the brake pipes for the left front and rear wheels are incorrectly connected to the joints. Because of this, the vehicle may lose stability when ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) is activated in the event of emergency braking or on a slippery road.

On certain vehicles, the water through hole in the bottom of the left rear panel is blocked by filler material (intended for use in gaps on the vehicle body). In such a case, water such as rainwater is trapped inside the panel and it could cause rust on the electric connector for the fuel pump. If this happens, the fuel pump fails to operate, and the vehicle becomes stalled.

On certain vehicles, the welding of the bracket securing the shock absorber strut on the vehicle body is inadequate. If left unfixed, the welded points may come off, and in the worst case, the bracket gets damaged, adversely affecting vehicle stability.

For the solenoid switch that turns on/off the current to the starter motor, on certain vehicles, the terminal fitting is inadequate. For this reason, if liquid with high conductivity contacts the terminal, it can get into the inside of the terminal causing a short circuit. If left unfixed, the engine may fail to start, and this could cause burnout in the terminal area.
