Ford Transit: Brakes

Affects Ford Transit · 2015 — about 29 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles, leaks could develop where the rear brake hoses connect to the rear calipers. This would cause a loss of brake fluid and illuminate the brake warning lamp in the instrument panel. If operated in this condition, brake system function could be affected, potentially increasing stopping distances and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the rear caliper to hose joint.
