Concern

The + wire of the griptone battery charging socket could rub through

Defect, as DVSA words it

The permanent + wire (30) of the GRIPTONE battery charging socket could rub through due to a sharp edge on a fixing bracket.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

The geometry of the fixing bracket will be modified to remove the possibility of the wire rubbing.
