What NHTSA recorded

Improper routing of the "hydroboost" hydraulic system high pressure hose assembly could allow a tubular section to contact the frame side rail. Abrasion from the contact could result, causing a leak in the hose assembly.

Remedy

The dealer will reroute "hydroboost" high pressure hose assemblies and any damaged hoses will be replaced.
