Risk Description

In the ABS (Antilock Braking System) modulator, excessive grease was applied to the O-ring of the reservoir piston due to improper management of the equipment for applying grease to components. During continued use in this condition, foreign matter adheres to the grease that has moved to the out valve, and it may become pinched in the check valve during braking, causing input pressure leak, and increasing the braking distance. The product does not comply with the requirements laid down in the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of two- or three-wheel vehicles and quadricycles.
