Issue
On certain vehicles equipped with ZF front axles, incorrect routing may allow the brake hose to rub the front tire under certain conditions. This could eventually cause the brake hose protective cover and hose braiding to wear through, resulting in loss of or reduced air pressure to the front brake chamber during brake application. This could reduce braking system performance and increase stopping distances, or cause uneven brake application on the front axle, potentially affecting vehicle control. These issues could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace and re-route the front axle brake hoses.
