## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the rear axle vent hose could contact the rear brake hose which eventually could wear a hole in the brake hose.  Perforation of the rear brake hose will result in a loss of braking force at the rear wheels.  Correction:  Rear brake hoses will be inspected for evidence of wear.  Worn brake hoses will be replaced.  The rear axle vent hose will be shortened by 8 cm and a clip will be installed to assure the clearance between the axle vent line and the brake hose is maintained.
