What NHTSA recorded

The rear hydraulic brake system might be capable of generating excessive hydraulic pressure which could exceed the burst strength of some of the rear brake calipers. This could cause caliper fracture and total loss of rear brakes.

Remedy

Dealer will inspect and modify the brake system at no cost to owner.
