The cable within the Clock Spring situated in the steering wheel can delimitate and become entangled within the assembly. This can cause a short circuit which can activate the horn or lights without warning and in extreme cases the driver's airbag.
In certain loaded conditions the vehicle jack may fail causing the vehicle to drop during a wheel change operation.
The battery harness may not be sufficiently secured. There is a chance if not noticed during servicing that the insulation of the harness could chaff and expose the wiring. This could then generate sparks and excessive heat within the engine bay.
