Loss of vehicle

Hi there,

I am wondering if I built this sentence correctly or not?

" Improper usage may cause injury, damage and lost. "

Please comment. TQ

" Since you're talking about vehicles, you should probably be more specific about the particular kind of loss. Do you mean the damage could be so severe that the insurance company would consider the car a total loss? Or do you just mean that the car could lose some of its value?

The only problem I see with the build is that "lost" is an adjective here, and we need the noun, "loss."

Since you're talking about vehicles, you should probably be more specific about the particular kind of loss.

Or do you just mean that the car could lose some
