What is wrong
ADVICS North America, Inc. (ADVICS) is recalling certain antil-lock brake system (ABS) Actuators manufactured December 4, 2014, to December 23, 2014. These ABS actuators may have contamination in the solenoid valves, potentially affecting the valves ability to completely close and allow a build up of hydraulic brake pressure, or fully open and allow the hydraulic brake pressure to completely drop.
What can happen
Under some driving conditions, when the ABS is activated, the malfunctioning ABS actuator could cause a loss of vehicle stability, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
ADVICS has notified the affected vehicle manufacturers. The vehicle manufacturers will contact the vehicle owners, and their dealers will inspect and replace the ABS actuator, as necessary, free of charge.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
