What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 4 covers structural vehicle defects: the U-bolt holds the axle to the suspension, and the source states a shifted axle causes a loss of vehicle control.
