Details

What's wrong: Under conditions of full lock steering and full suspension travel, the left or right front wheel-side brake hose can crack, resulting in brake fluid leakage.

Why it matters: Brake fluid leakage will cause illumination of the brake warning lamp and reduction in braking effectiveness increasing the risk of a vehicle accident.

The fix: Dealers will replace the left and right front wheel-side brake hoses with revised hose assemblies.
