Recall 2014387

The issue

On certain vehicles, bolts that hold the brake caliper to the backing plate may not have been tightened to specification, and could allow the brake caliper to separate from the backing plate. This would disable braking at the affected wheel, which could cause the vehicle to pull to one side during braking, and also increase stopping distances, which could result in a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect bolts and repair as required.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, les boulons qui fixent l'étrier de frein sur le plateau de frein pourraient ne pas avoir été serrés conformément aux spécifications et pourraient permettre à l'étrier de frein de se détacher du plateau de frein. Cela mettrait les freins hors­service au niveau de la roue visée, ce qui pourrait faire en sorte que le véhicule tire d'un côté pendant le freinage et pourrait augmenter les distances de freinage, ce qui pourrait résulter en un accident blessant quelqu'un ou endommageant des biens matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les boulons et effectuer les réparations nécessaires le cas échéant.
