Details

What's wrong: The brake pedal assembly has a pushrod pin that is too small and it is installed in the wrong position, causing an increased brake pedal ratio and a decreased master cylinder stroke.

Why it matters: The reduced master cylinder stroke results in failure tomeet the partial system failure requirements of fmvss 105, "hydraulic brakesystems". A further reduction in braking ability at a time when partial systemfailure has occurred could result in a vehicle crash.

The fix: Replace the brake assembly.
