The defect

On some vehicles, the sealing surfaces for a hydraulic brake hose on a front brake caliper were covered by paint residue. Brake fluid gradually dissolves the paint, opening a small path between the sealing surface and the gasket allowing brake fluid to leak when the brake IS applied.

The risk

This can result in increased stopping distances and a possible vehicle accident.

The remedy

Dealers will remove paint from the brake caliper, replace copper gaskets and bleed the front brakes.
