The product poses a risk of injuries because the fixing screws on the back axis of the wheel hub (4 per side, total: 8) may not be sufficiently tightened in some vehicles and could gradually come loose over an extended period of time. In the worst-case scenario, the complete back axis of the wheel hub could come loose (the screws could fall off) leading to the risk of an accident.
