Unsafe Condition

Reports of fault messages caused by improperly crimped hinge pins coming into contact with wires and causing damage. Improperly crimped hinge pins could damage tie rods and wire bundles, causing shorts in many systems, including the spar fuel shut-off valve, oxygen mask deployment, and burned wires, which could be an ignition source in a hidden area of the airplane.
