The problem
The abs brake master cylinder rear seal allows air to enter the brake system, causing spongy brakes or partial brake system loss.
The risk
Air entering the brake system caused extended stopping distance or partial loss of brakes which may result in an accident.
The fix
Master cylinders will be inspected for the suspect build date code range and will be replaced if necessary.
