What NHTSA recorded

Severe and unusual braking conditions may cause damage to the brake master cylinder center valve. Consequence of defect: if sufficient damage occurs, loss of front brakes may occur with increased pedal travel and reduced braking ability. The reduction of braking ability at a time when minimum stopping distance is required could result in a vehicle crash without prior warning.

Remedy

New master cylinder center valve and related parts will be installed.
