What is wrong
DUE TO THE IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF HYDRAULIC BRAKE HOSES, THE HOSE COULD RUB AGAINST THE RIM IN CERTAIN WHEEL POSITIONS. BRAKE FLUID LOSS COULD RESULT, CAUSING A DEGRADATION IN THE PERFORMANCE OF THE FRONT BRAKE SYSTEM. THIS WOULD CAUSE AN INCREASE IN VEHICLE STOPPING DISTANCES.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
DEALER WILL REROUTE THE FRONT BRAKE HOSE AT NO COST TO OWNER.

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.
