If this happens, transmission fluid could leak and eventually cause a loss of power to the wheels. Safety Risk: A transmission fluid leak onto a hot surface can create the risk of a fire. Additionally, a loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: BraunAbility will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the affected screw and clip with a nylon rivet. The dealer will also inspect the transmission case for fluid leaks and repair it, as necessary.
