What can go wrong

The footbrake pedal is connected to the master cylinder via the brake pedal pin. It is possible that the retaining clip/locking pin that locks the footbrake pedal pin may not have been installed. If this is the case it is possible that the brake pedal pin may become detached. This will result in an increase in pedal travel and a corresponding increase in stopping distance.

The fix

Recall all affected vehicle and check for presence of retaining clip/locking pin. If found to be missing a new clip/pin will be installed.

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.
