The problem
The involved vehicles may have been assembled without the retainer clip for the brake pedal push rod. The absence of this retainer clip could allow the brake pedal to disengage from the master cyclinder push rod.
The fix
The dealer will inspect and, if necessary, install the retainer clip on all suspect vehicles without charge.
