The risk
It is possible that the power steering oil pump pulley fixing nut may be loosened or the pulley may crack due to insufficient tightening torque of the fixing nut and insufficient strength of pulley. If the vehicle continues to be used under such conditions, the pulley may be broken or come off, allowing the steering effort to increase. This can lead to the loss of control of vehicle.
