The issue
On certain vehicles, the anti-lock braking system (ABS) may have an out of specification traction isolation valve. This would cause the driver to experience a momentary hard brake pedal feel during certain braking events, which in conjunction with driver reactions, may increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the ABS module.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules, le système ABS pourrait comporter une soupape d'isolation d'adhérence ne répondant pas aux spécifications. À cause de cela, la pédale de freinage serait difficile à enfoncer momentanément dans certains cas, ce qui, en conjonction avec les réactions du conducteur, pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident blessant quelqu'un ou endommageant des biens matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront reprogrammer le module ABS.
