The defect

Some of the subject vehicles may have been built with front wheel brake hoses that are too long. This may make it possible for the brake hose to contact a front tire during a full left or right turn, which could result in chafing of the brake hose and subsequent brake fluid leakage.

The remedy

Vehicles will be inspected and, if necessary, front brake hoses and brackets will be replaced at no charge.
