The risk
The trailer has an incorrect tyre-wheel size combination, increasing the risk of puncture. This can lead to a loss of traction. Moreover, the coupling can be overloaded, increasing the risk of trailer detachment. Additionally, rear underrun may not be applied or sharp parts can be extending backwards. Furthermore, some axles are undersized and mass data is uncertified. This can lead the axle/suspension part(s) to break under load. Finally, incorrectly applied weights can cause ineffective brake performance. Each previous defect increases the risk of accidents and injuries. 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 suchvehicles.
Product: One axle tilt platform trailer, vehicle category: O1.
