Recall P14
NOTE: This recall applies only to the above vehicles built through September 08, 2013
(MDH 090804).
IMPORTANT: Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer used vehicle
inventory. Dealers should complete this recall service on these vehicles before
retail delivery. Dealers should also perform this recall on vehicles in for service.
Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.
Subject
The brake booster on about 164,900 of the above vehicles may prematurely
corrode. If perforation of the brake booster shell (due to corrosion) occurs, the
brake booster may ingest water during vehicle operation in wet weather conditions.
A brake booster that has experienced water ingestion may have the brake function
compromised if the water inside the brake booster freezes. The driver may be
required to apply additional application force to apply the brakes during
sub-freezing driving conditions. An unexpected additional brake pedal application
force requirement could slow the drivers brake application reaction time and cause
a crash without warning.
Repair
All involved vehicles must have the brake booster inspected for corrosion. Brake
boosters found with excessive corrosion will be replaced. All boosters will be
equipped with a shield to protect the brake booster crimp joints from water
exposure.

Alternate Transportation
Dealers should attempt to minimize customer inconvenience by placing the owner
in a loaner vehicle if inspection determines that brake booster replacement is
required and the vehicle must be held overnight.
