What can go wrong

In certain cases the front brake flexible hoses may be located too close to the front discs and become worn through contact with them. This poses the risk of a deterioration of brake performance.

The fix

Recalled vehicles will have the front brake flexible hose retaining brackets replaced.

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
