What are the defects?
Due to a manufacturing defect, there may be insufficient clearance between the right rear brake hose and the exhaust system. This may cause the brake hose to be exposed to heat from the exhaust, resulting in damage and reduced rear braking performance.
What are the hazards?
A reduction in braking performance could increase the risk of an accident, causing serious injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.
What should consumers do?
