Description (français)

Une arête vive sur l'axe du cric peut endommager le filetage intérieur du losange articulé lorsqu'on se sert du cric pour soulever le véhicule. Si le filetage du losange articulé est suffisamment endommagé, il se peut que le cric s'affaisse et qu'une personne se tenant à proximité du véhicule soit blessée. Correction: Les cries devront être remplacés sur les véhicules visés.
