Summary of the Safety Concern:

THIS CONDITION WILL OCCUR IF THE BOLTS ATTACHING THE UPRIGHT TO THE HUB CARRIER ARE NOT KEPT TIGHT, COMBINED WITH SEVERE CORNERING CONDITIONS. THIS PIVOTING CONDITION WILL CAUSE THE BOLTS TO ELONGATE THE HOLES OF THE UPRIGHT, RESULTING IN REAR WHEEL VIBRATION. THIS WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO HUB CARRIER BREAKAGE. |
