There is the potential for a foul to occur between a brake pipe and an engine mounted hose clip, which could eventually result in failure of the brake pipe. This failure could result in a loss of brake fluid which may lead to an increased stopping distance under braking. In addition, there is a risk of fire due to brake fluid escaping into the engine compartment.

0 Toyota ECHO (NCP1#) & PRIUS (NHW11)

Due to improper moulding of the resin body of the crankshaft position sensor installed on the engine block, engine oil may penetrate the seal and enter the sensor wiring connector. In addition, the wire harness connector may not be sufficiently attached to the locking tab of the sensor wiring connection. In this condition, engine oil inside the sensor wiring connector could cause expansion due to the heat of the engine and could deform the sensor wiring connector. In the worst case, the connector may become disconnected, which could cause the engine to stall while driving and not be able to be restarted.
