What NHTSA recorded

A cotter pin in the brake pedal to brake master cylinder linkage assembly may be missing. This pin acts as a retainer for the brake master cylinder pushrod clevis pin. Consequence of defect: the clevis pin may slide out causing the master cylinder/brake pedal linkage to become disengaged. If this linkage becomes disengaged the service brakes cannot be applied, creating the risk of a crash without prior warning.

Remedy

Inspect and install brake linkage cotter pin as necessary.
