What can go wrong

Due to the insufficient strength of the material used in the brake pedal bearing it is possible that the bearing could fail when extreme force is applied to it during heavy or extreme braking.

The fix

Recall all affected vehicles and replace the brake pedal bearing.

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.
