    “Due to a manufacturing defect, the rear axle brake hoses may become damaged over time. If this occurs it could lead to a brake fluid leak resulting in reduced braking performance,” the carmaker said in its recall notice.

    “A reduction in braking performance could increase the risk of an accident causing injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.”
