Abrasion of the brake line could result in loss of rearbrakes. The front brakes would function, but the vehicle would need increasedstopping distances which could result in an accident.
Remedy
Install retention clips to insure the lower and upper ball socket cannot be removed from the ball; add a down stop on the sensor arm; and add a shield on the rear axle.
