Sprinter Side Ladder
It is crucial to ensure that all WTA products are assembled and securely
attached to your vehicle. Failure to do so may result in automobile accidents,
posing a significant risk of bodily injury or even death to yourself and
others. As the owner, it is your responsibility to properly assemble and
secure WTA products, diligently inspecting the mounting points and attachments
before use, and regularly checking for any signs of wear or damage.
To guarantee optimal safety, we strongly advise engaging the services of a
professional installer for the installation of any aftermarket accessories to
your vehicle. If you lack mechanical experience or are unfamiliar with the
installation procedures, it is imperative to have the product installed by a
qualified professional or individuals who possess the necessary expertise.
Remember, the responsibility lies with you, and it must be taken seriously to
ensure the safety of all individuals involved.
