The issue

On certain vehicles, the front brake pipe may contact the left-hand side of the engine oil pan. This contact could cause the brake pipe to wear through to the point of brake fluid loss during brake application. This could reduce braking effectiveness and increase stopping distances. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected and an additional brake pipe clip will be installed if required. If there was contact between the oil pan and the brake pipe, the brake pipe will be replaced.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, la canalisation de freinage avant peut entrer en contact avec le côté gauche du carter d’huile du moteur. Il se peut alors que la canalisation s’use, se perce et provoque une fuite du liquide de frein durant l’application des freins, ce qui pourrait réduire la puissance des freins et faire augmenter les distances de freinage. Correction : Les véhicules devront être inspectés et une autre attache devra être installée sur la canalisation de frein s’il y a lieu. S’il y a eu contact entre la canalisation de frein et le carter d’huile, la canalisation devra être remplacée.
