Defect
The power steering hydraulic pipe is improperly secured, allowing engine vibration to shift it out of position. Depending on the pipe's displaced position, it may contact the brake pipe. Continued use in this condition may damage the brake pipe, causing brake fluid to leak and reducing braking force.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the hydraulic pipe mounting clamp with a new part and add a displacement-prevention stopper. Any brake pipe or hydraulic pipe found to be damaged must also be replaced with new parts.
