Recall date: 11 December 2014

Defect

Sections of hose delivering brake fluid from the Hydraulic Brake Control Modulator to the left-hand and right-hand front Brake Calipers may have been twisted during vehicle assembly. Stresses in the twisted hose may result in a slow brake fluid leak.

Hazard

If a leak is not detected visually, the vehicle operator may notice the brake pedal begin to feel softer over successive applications. This may cause a gradual increase in vehicle stopping distance and pose an accident hazard.

Remedy

Holden will write to all affected customers to notify them of required action.
