  • UK Recall: Pistons in rear brake calipers may not be coated to specifications
    >The fault affects the brake system in particular the brake calipers on the rear axle. because of a faulty coating hydrogen gas (approximately 10 ml) could be created in the coating of the piston of the brake caliper. this will be completely outgassed during the first 2 months after the production process causing longer brake pedal travel. under certain circumstances the relevant brake pressure cannot be build up in the rear brake circuit. as a result the brake force of the system may be reduced by up to 30%. the driver may feel a soft brake pedal and a reduction of the brake performance. in certain cases the rear brake circuit could fail leading to increased risk of an accident.

    Corrective Action:
    On the affected vehicles the brake system will be bled.
