Hazard / Issue

There is more force required to slide the driveline cover (boot cover) away from the connector after completion of a Driveline Strain Relief Repair than over an unrepaired strain relief. This may lead to difficulty in pulling back the driveline cover when attempting to access the Driveline connector during a controller exchange. Additionally, sliding the driveline cover over a strain relief repair may compromise the repair.
