BMW Mini John Cooper Works: Brake Performance Could Be Affected

Recalling firm
BMW
Product
Vehicles: BMW MINI John Cooper Works. Units affected: 260
Reason
It is possible that the vehicle has been fitted with 16 inch front brake discs instead of the required 17 inch brake discs. If this is the case extreme braking could result in the over heating of the brake system and introduce vapour (air) bubbles into the brake fluid. This could affect the braking performance. Remedy: Recall all potentially affected vehicles and check the size of the brakes discs on the front axle. If 16 inch brake discs are found replace these with the correct 17 inch brakes discs and brake pads.
