Issue

On certain vehicles equipped with a hydraulic brake booster, an incorrect switch may have been installed, potentially disabling brake warning lights in the instrument panel. As a result, warning lights may fail to illuminate in the event of a reduction in brake power assist, causing an unexpected increase in braking effort, which could increase stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install the correct switch.
