⚠️ Risk

The product poses a risk of injuries because on some vehicles the adjustment bushes of the rear brake shoes may break when tightening the handbrake because of insufficient wall thickness. In such cases, the handbrake cannot be tightened, or may loosen again after tightening, causing the risk of an accident.
