Recall 1991175

The issue

On certain vehicles, In areas of high road salt use, corrosion of the composite front brake rotors could cause separation of the stamped steel centre section from the cast outer rotor resulting in complete loss of braking capability for the affected wheel and a partial loss of front braking. This would increase stopping distances and could result in a crash without prior warning. Correction: Dealers will replace both front brake rotors with rotors having a corrosion protective coating.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, dans les régions où l'usage du sel de voirie est très répandu, la corrosion du matériau composite des rotors de freins avant peut entraîner la séparation de la section centrale en acier estampé du rotor externe, entraînant une perte totale de la puissance de freinage sur la roue touchée et une perte partielle du freinage avant. Cela peut faire augmenter les distances de freinage et causer un accident de façon imprévisible.
