The risk
Excessive cable tension can result in unexpected latch opening. This can lead the bonnet to open while the car is in motion and obstruct the driver’s view. This increases the risk of accidents. 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.
