The lightweight brake drums with slack adjusters may drag against the brakes causing the drums to overheat which can result in the brake drum cracking, separating from the vehicle or the brakes becoming inoperative. If the brake drum separates or if the brakes become inoperative, it can increase the risk of a crash.
