Defect
On the bracket that mounts the brake pedal to the vehicle body, the pivot shaft of the brake pedal may not be properly staked. Continued use allows the pivot shaft to pull free from the bracket. In the worst case, the brake pedal may detach from the bracket, making it impossible to apply the brakes.
Corrective action
Inspect all vehicles. On any vehicle where the pivot shaft is not properly staked, replace the bracket with a conforming part.
