Opel · Passenger car "Corsa"

The product poses a risk of injuries because on certain vehicles the handbrake lever may not have been manufactured to the exact specification, possibly leading to the handbrake not holding in the pulled/parking position, due to the missing heat treatment on the tooth segment of the handbrake lever.
