Defect

The brake hose routing at the rear axle is improper, causing the hose to contact the underbody rocker sill as the rear suspension moves through its travel. Continued operation in this condition wears and damages the hose. This may result in brake fluid leaking and a reduction in braking force.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the brake hose with a corrected part incorporating a revised routing path.
