The issue
On certain vehicles, rear backing plate corrosion may result in wheel cylinder rotation and possible loss of rear brakes with resultant increase in stopping distances. Correction: External wheel cylinder retainers will be installed. Backing plates will be inspected for rust-through and should this condition exist, a new backing plate and wheel cylinder assembly will be installed.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules, si le plateau de frein arrière est corrodé, le cylindre récepteur de la roue peut pivoter, ce qui peut entraîner une perte de puissance aux freins arrière et une augmentation des distances de freinage.
