Issue

The vacuum hose for the brake booster was assembled in a twisted condition on some vehicles. Repeated brake applications can temporarily reduce the vacuum acting on the booster. This may cause reduced brake effectiveness on the second and subsequent brake applications.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, inspect the vacuum hose for twist. Replace any twisted hose with a new part.
