Skoda Octavia: Brake Vacuum Supply Pipe Concern
- Recalling firm
- SKODA
- Product
- Vehicles: SKODA OCTAVIA. Units affected: 2,301
- Reason
- On Octavia vehicles within the affected chassis number range tension cracks may occur on the vacuum pipe to the brake servo in the area of the pipe connections due to a manufacturing fault. If a vacuum pipe leaks the brake servo loses it's function. Without servo assistance a lot more force must be used on the pedal. But this will not lead to total failure of the brake system. Remedy: The fitted vacuum pipes will be checked and if necessary replaced.
