What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The risk

THE LEAK OF FLUID FROM THE REAR METAL BRAKE LINE COULDCAUSE REDUCED BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS AND INCREASE STOPPING DISTANCE.

The remedy

REROUTE REAR METAL BRAKE LINES TO AVOID CONTACT WITH THE REAR SHOCK ABSORBER, AND REPLACE BRAKE LINES THAT HAVE CONTACTED THE SHOCK ABSORBERS.

Notes

SYSTEM: METAL REAR BRAKE LINE.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MULTI-PURPOSE VEHICLE.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
