## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the grommet holding the brake line to the front struts may slip out of its bracket.  Consequently, the brake hose attached to the brake line may come in contact with the tire and be subject to wear and abrasion.  This could cause some brake fluid leakage which would eventually illuminate the brake warning indicator light.  If a loss of front brake performance occurs, the rear brake circuit will still be functional, and will be able to slow and stop the vehicle.  Correction:  Dealer will install an additional retaining clip in order to further secure the line and grommet to the strut.
