The defect
The right front brake hose may rub against the tire during a full lock left turn, which may eventually cause wear through of the brake hose on the right front side.
The risk
Wear through of the right front brake hose would causefluid loss from half of the split brake hydraulic system and increase stoppingdistance which could result in an accident.
The remedy
If clearance between the brake hose and tire on the right front IS inadequate, replace brake hose with a modified version to ensure adequate clearance.
