Details

What's wrong: The retainer clip that holds the master cylinder push rod to the brake pedal arm is missing.

Why it matters: A loss of service braking can occur increasing the risk of a vehicle accident.

The fix: Dealers will inspect to verify that the retainer clips are installed and if clips are missing will install clips.
