## What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with anti\-lock brakes \(ABS\), the brake master cylinder secondary circuit may not function in extremely cold weather due to brake fluid bypassing the fluid supply valve, which remains open.  This condition can result in the brake pedal going to the floor during normal light brake application, thereby increasing stopping distance.  Correction:  Brake master cylinder will be repaired or replaced as required.
