Reason for concern

BRAKE FLUID MAY LEAK - BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE AFFECTED

Reason for recall

The rear brake pipe bracket to axle securing bolt may fail due to inconsistencies in bolt manufacture. Low clamp load of the joint could lead to bolt failure and subsequent fatigue failure of the rear brake bundy pipe. This would result loss of brake fluid and significantly reduced brake performance (single circuit brake operation only and soft brake pedal).

Remedy

The original bolt will be replaced with a new bolt and locking nut.
