What Happened
Your vehicle's brake system has a potential issue with the hoses and pipes that connect the brake system. Specifically, there might be a small gap between two hoses that could cause a problem.
Risk if Unfixed
If one of these hoses gets punctured, you could lose braking power in the back wheels, which could lead to an accident.
Free Fix
We'll inspect the brake hoses, replace any worn ones, shorten the rear vent hose by 3 inches, and add a clip to ensure the hoses are properly aligned and won't rub against each other.
