Defect
The brake fluid reservoir tank's float stopper, used to trigger the low brake fluid warning, is improperly designed. During pressurized brake fluid filling on the production line, the float may have separated from the stopper on certain units. As a result, even when brake fluid level drops, the low brake fluid warning system may fail to activate.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the brake fluid reservoir tank with the corrected part.
