Ford Transit and Transit Custom passenger car — injuries risk

EU Safety GateSerious riskInjuriesMar 8, 2013

Hazard

The vehicles pose the risk of injuries because they have been fitted with a brake pedal pin retaining "R" clip which does not meet material specification. Spring tension of the clip will be reduced. As a result, there is the possibility that the clip could come off, allowing the brake pedal to detach from the brake booster push rod. This would result in loss of brake actuation and could lead to an accident.
