| Rod modified and seriously weakened | a mechanical brake component inappropriately repaired or modified. | Rod excessively corroded (major) |
| Rod insecure | a cable, rod or clevis joint insecure | Rod insecure (major) |
| Rod reduced in thickness more than 1/3rd by chaffing | reduced in thickness by more than 1/3rd | Rod insecure (major) |
| Rod has restricted free movement | restricted free movement of brake components | Rod has restricted free movement (major) |
| Rod excessively worn and seriously weakened | serious weakening of any part due to excessive wear, damage or corrosion | Rod excessively worn (major) |
| Rod excessively damaged and seriously weakened | serious weakening of any part due to excessive wear, damage or corrosion | Rod excessively corroded (major) |
| Rod excessively corroded and seriously weakened | serious weakening of any part due to excessive wear, damage or corrosion | Rod excessively corroded (major) |
