## What is wrong

CONTAMINATION OF THE VACUUM BRAKE HOSE CHECK VALVE BY DETERGENT   USED IN MANUFACTURE, COULD CAUSE THE VALVE TO STICK AT LOW   AMBIENT TEMPERATURES THEREBY PREVENTING ITS OPERATION. RESIDUAL   VACUUM IN THE POWER BRAKE SYSTEM WOULD PROVIDE POWER ASSIST TO    THE BRAKES ON INITIAL APPLICATION, BUT THE STICKING VALVE WOULD   PREVENT VACUUM BUILD\-UP TO PROVIDE CONTINUED POWER ASSIST. THIS   COULD RESULT IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES AND A POSSIBLE   VEHICLE CRASH.

CORRECTION: VACUUM BRAKE HOSE AND CHECK VALVE ASSEMBLY WILL BE   REPLACED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.
