Defect

In the engine, the vacuum pump shaft used for the brake booster and exhaust gas recirculation system received improper heat treatment, resulting in insufficient strength. The shaft may fracture, eliminating vacuum generation. This reduces the vacuum reserve in the brake booster tank, illuminating the brake warning lamp and reducing braking force.

Corrective action

Replace the vacuum pump with a corrected part on all vehicles.
