The issue
On certain vehicles, the diaphragm in brake booster may unseat due to a manufacturing defect. This could result in a vacuum leak in the brake system and a reduction or loss in power brake assist, which would increase pedal effort, and extend stopping distances, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the vehicle brake system’s booster assembly.
Description (français)
La membrane du servofrein de certains véhicules pourrait se déplacer en raison d'un défaut de fabrication et causer une fuite de vide dans le circuit de freinage et une diminution ou une perte de capacité du servofrein. Cela pourrait faire augmenter la pression requise pour actionner la pédale de frein et ainsi accroître les distances de freinage et les risques de collision pouvant causer des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le servofrein.
