    Front brake hydraulic line may contact and rub against fuel tank or speedometer cable resulting in scuffing and subsequent wearing on brake lines outer surface which could cause a hydraulic fluid leak. Consequence of defect: hydraulic fluid leak due to the damaged lines impairs brake performance.

    Remedy: A spiral hose to protect the brake line from contact will be installed, as well as a hose clamp and support, so brake line will not change.
