In frequent stop/start conditions in snow and severely cold weather , compacted snow/ice may build up on the inner face of the wheel disc. In extreme circumstances the snow/ice may strike and distort the metal pipe that connects to the rear brake cylinder. Impaired braking and a hydraulic fluid leak may result. Vehicles built from 10/10/2002 to 03/11/2002 are at risk.
The following remedial action is necessary to address this problem. Fit a modified and re-routed brake pipe.
