What Happened
The rear brake caliper flexible line in your 4500 or 5500 is a critical safety component that helps control your vehicle's rear brakes. In some cases, it might be misrouted and wear down faster.
Risk if Unfixed
If the flexible line wears down, you could lose some or all of your rear brakes. This means you might feel the vehicle pulling or swaying when you hit the brakes, and it increases the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will fix the issue by rerouting the flexible line and replacing it if necessary, all at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you receive the recall notice.
