Defect
In the electric vacuum pump that supplies negative pressure to the brake booster, insufficient inspection of the internal vanes allowed units containing cracks formed during the manufacturing process to be assembled. Continued use causes the vane to fracture, disabling the vacuum pump. This may result in extended stopping distance.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the brake electric vacuum pump assembly with a corrected part.
