What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

A FLEXIBLE BRAKE HOSE THAT CONNECTS THE HYDRAULIC PUMP TO THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) VALVE BLOCK ASSEMBLY CAN LEAK CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID.

The risk

LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID CAN RESULT IN THE INOPERATION OF PRIMARY BRAKE CIRCUIT, INCLUDING THE REAR BRAKES, AND LOSS OF ABS OPERATION WITH A CONSEQUENT REDUCTION IN BRAKING PERFORMANCE AND POSSIBLE INCREASED BRAKING DISTANCES. ALSO, BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT COULD CAUSE A FIRE IF THERE IS A SOURCE OF IGNITION.

The remedy

DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE VEHICLES TO DETERMINE IF IT IS FITTED WITH THE SUSPECT HOSE AND THEN REPLACE THE SUSPECT HOSE WITH THE LATEST DESIGN.

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.
