Defect

On driving school instructor brake systems, the brake booster has an inadequate water seal, allowing water to enter the atmospheric valve inside the booster. In the worst case, the intruding water may freeze, impairing booster function and increasing the brake pedal effort required to achieve braking.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, install a rubber cover on the brake booster atmospheric valve and replace the upper diaphragm assembly of the atmospheric valve with a conforming part.
