Problem description:
Certain spot-welds were missed during the welding of the body panels to the left and right front shock absorbers. As a result, cracks and breakage may occur on other spot-welds and/or on the body panels around the front shock absorber mounting areas.
This could cause a front shock absorber to separate from the mounting area, resulting in a loss of vehicle driving stability, increasing the risk of an accident.
