The issue
THE BRAKE PEDAL TO MASTER CYLINDER PUSH ROD RETAINER (HAIRPIN CLIP) MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PROPERLY INSTALLED ON THE SERVICE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS COULD RESULT IN DISENGAGEMENT OF THE BRAKE PUSH ROD AND LOSS OF SERVICE BRAKING. THIS COULD OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING AND RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL INSPECT, AND IF NECESSARY, REPLACE THE RETAINER.
Description (français)
La goupille qui retient la pédale de frein à la tige de poussoir du maître-cylindre n'est pas toujours correctement installée sur la pédale de frein de service. Il se peut donc que la pédale se désolidarise du poussoir sans avertissement et que le conducteur perde l'usage des freins de service, ce qui pourrait entraîner un accident. Correction: Les concessionnaires devront inspecter et, s'il y a lieu, remplacer la goupille.
