Issue

On certain vehicles, the left rear brake hose may contact the parking brake cable, causing the brake hose to wear. The resultant chafe damage could, over time, cause a brake fluid leak, which may result in a reduction of braking performance and increased stopping distance. This could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect the left rear brake hose to ensure sufficient clearance to the park brake cable. The brake hose will also be inspected for damage and, if necessary, replaced.
