Defect
The heat protector mounting bracket attached to the vehicle frame is incorrectly shaped, resulting in insufficient strength. Vibration during driving can fracture the bracket, allowing the heat protector to contact the brake pipes. Continued use after contact damages the brake pipes, causing brake fluid to leak and reducing braking force.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the mounting bracket with a corrected part. Additionally, inspect the brake pipes and replace any damaged pipes with new ones.
