What can go wrong

The left hand front brake pipe may not be fully secure which could lead to the brake pipe chafing on the EGR pipe. If this occurs and remains unseen the damage could result in loss of brake fluid and the attendant loss of braking efficiency.

The fix

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace and correctly secure the left hand front brake pipe.

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.
