What can happen

Safety consequence

A HOLE IN THE BRAKE PIPE CAN CAUSE LOSS OF FRONT BRAKE PERFORMANCE AND INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

What fixes it

Official remedy

DEALERS WILL INSTALL AN ENGINE OIL COOLER HOSE BRACKET TO PREVENT THE LOWER ENGINE OIL COOLER HOSE FROM CONTACTING THE BRAKE PIPE, AND ALSO INSPECTING THE BRAKE PIPE FOR WEAR. IF NECESSARY, THE BRAKE PIPE WILL BE REPLACED.
