Recall 2009302

The issue

On certain vehicles, the brake hoses may not have been properly crimped during the fabrication process. As such, the crimping rings may exhibit cracks that weaken the integrity of the hose connection, causing a separation of the hose from the connector. Should separation occur, a drop in pneumatic pressure could occur, resulting in a partial or complete loss of braking efficiency. This could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect the crimping rings and, if necessary, replace the brake hoses.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, les tuyaux des freins pourraient ne pas avoir été adéquatement sertis lors de la fabrication. Les bagues de sertissage pourraient comporter des fissures qui affaibliraient le raccord de tuyau, ce qui entraînerait un détachement du tuyau au niveau du raccord. Si le tuyau se détachait, la pression de l'air comprimé pourrait chuter, ce qui causerait une diminution ou une perte de l'efficacité des freins. Cela pourrait causer un accident, endommager des biens matériels, blesser quelqu'un ou entraîner des pertes de vies. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les bagues de sertissage et, le cas échéant, remplacer les tuyaux des freins.
