The issue
On certain vehicles equipped with carbon ceramic brakes, the brake rotor fixing screws may fail. This could result in reduced braking performance, which could increase stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the screws with an updated design.
