Recall 2007132

The issue

Certain vehicles may have brake lines that are incorrectly connected at the ABS hydraulic control unit. This would cause brake pressure to be applied to the right front wheel that would normally be intended for the right rear wheel and vice versa. As a result, braking performance would be adversely affected, including the potential for increased stopping distances that could result in a crash causing injury or death. Correction: Dealers will reroute affected brake lines.

Description (français)

Certains véhicules pourraient comporter des canalisations de frein qui sont mal branchées sur l'unité de commande hydraulique du système ABS. Cela ferait en sorte que la pression de freinage qui serait normalement destinée à la roue arrière droite serait appliquée à la roue avant droite et vice versa. En conséquence, le rendement du système de freinage serait diminué et les distances de freinage pourraient augmenter, ce qui pourrait causer un accident et blesser quelqu'un ou entraîner des pertes de vie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront déplacer les canalisations de freinage visées.
