The issue
On certain motorhomes, the brake calipers may stick in the applied position. This can result in abnormal heat generation at the wheel end which, if undetected, could eventually lead to soft brake pedal condition due to brake fluid boil. Extended stopping distances may result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will affect repairs.
Description (français)
Sur certaines autocaravanes, les étriers des freins pourraient se bloquer en position serrée. Cela pourrait produire une quantité anormale de chaleur au niveau des roues; si ce problème n'était pas détecté, le liquide de freinage pourrait bouillir et cela pourrait faire en sorte que la pédale de freinage soit spongieuse. Des distances de freinage plus grandes pourraient provoquer un accident, endommager des biens matériels, blesser quelqu'un ou entraîner des pertes de vies. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront effectuer les réparations nécessaires.
