The defect

The brake pedal assembly has a pushrod pin that IS too small and it IS installed in the wrong position, causing an increased brake pedal ratio and a decreased master cylinder stroke.

The risk

The reduced master cylinder stroke results in failure tomeet the partial system failure requirements of fmvss 105, "hydraulic brakesystems". A further reduction in braking ability at a time when partial systemfailure has occurred could result in a vehicle crash.

The remedy

Replace the brake assembly.
