Should the suction port become blocked, vacuum assist to the brakes would be insufficient and the increased pedal pressure required could lead to an increase in vehicle stopping distance.  Extended stopping distances may result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will install a newly designed intake air connector which will relocate the brake system vacuum port.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"09199","part_number":null,"units":15948,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety TC","french":{"component":"Freins","notification":"Sécurité - TC","summary":"Sur certains véhicules, lorsque le véhicule est utilisé à très basse température, l'orifice d'aspiration du collecteur d'admission du dispositif de mise sous vide du système d'assistance au freinage pourrait se bloquer à cause du gel de la condensation qui émane du recyclage des gaz du carter. Si l'orifice d'aspiration se bloquait, la mise sous vide qui sert à assister le conducteur lors du freinage serait insuffisante et la pression plus grande que l'on devrait appliquer sur la pédale de freinage pourrait augmenter les distances de freinage du véhicule. Une augmentation des distances de freinage pourrait provoquer un accident, endommager des biens matériels, blesser quelqu'un ou entraîner des pertes de vies. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront poser un raccord d'air d'admission repensé qui déplacera l'orifice d'aspiration du circuit de freinage."},"vehicles":[{"year":2009,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"VIBE","vehicle_id":"2009_pontiac_vibe","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2010,"make":"PONTIAC","model":"VIBE","vehicle_id":"2010_pontiac_vibe","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2009252"}
