⚠️ Risk

The product poses a risk of injuries due to an internal leakage in the brake master cylinder. If affected, the driver may experience reduced performance when applying and maintaining force on the brake pedal.Over time the capacity to brake will gradually deteriorate, forcing the driver to put more force on the brake pedal compared to when braking with an intact brake system. The deterioration will eventually result in a complete loss of the brake system function.
