What is wrong

The rear brake lines have inadequate clearance between the brake tube and the vehicle underbody in the area of the left rear wheel opening.

The risk

Inadequate clearance can cause abrasion of the brake lineand a leak can develop, resulting in loss of brake fluid to the rear brakesystem and increased stopping distances.

The fix

Repair any brake lines that have an indication of contact or have the potential for contact with the body of the vehicle. Relocate lines, if necessary.
