Details
What's wrong: It is possible that the retaining clip that secures the brake booster pushrod to the brake pedal arm was not properly installed during production. It is possible for the clip to detach from the pin on the brake pedal arm allowing the pushrod to disconnect from the arm.
Why it matters: If this occurs, braking is not possible.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the clip for tight installation and replace the clip if it is loose.
