The issue
On certain vehicles, the master cylinder may have been overstressed and cracked during cylinder manufacture. A cracked cylinder may fail during braking resulting in loss of vehicle braking capability. This could result in a vehicle crash without prior warning.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules, le maître-cylindre peut avoir subi diverses contraintes durant la fabrication et être fissuré. Un cylindre fissuré peut se briser sous l'effet d'un coup de frein et faire perdre au véhicule sa capacité de freinage. Un accident est alors possible.
