Cadillac Cts: Braking Efficiency May Be Compromised
- Recalling firm
- CADILLAC
- Product
- Vehicles: CADILLAC CTS. Units affected: 2,454
- Reason
- It is possible that the front brake hoses at the brake caliper could suffer excessive corrosion to the fittings as a result of corrosive content of the road salt within snow or water. Should the fitting corrode significantly it can result in a brake fluid leak. This leak should be identified. However should the hose detach or rupture without warning then the vehicle braking distance will increase which could cause a collision. Remedy: Recall all affected vehicles for the brake hoses to be replaced.
