The risk
The nut can unscrew itself as the connecting force is insufficient when the nut is placed on the end fork. This can cause an oil leak, damage to the central mechanics, or cause the transmission shaft to come loose, increasing the risk of an accident. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
