As a result of a problem with the brake pressure accumulator, nitrogen gas could leak from the brake pressure accumulator into the brake fluid and gradually cause the brake pedal stroke to become longer, resulting in decreased hydraulic pressure. This could result in increased stopping distances.
The recall concerns vehicles with production period from 10/10/2008 to 02/10/2009 and 24/12/2008 to 07/10/2009.

What the owner should do?
If you read about a recall that you think may affect your car, you should make immediate contact with a dealer or workshop that’s been officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details.
If you wish to know more about eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accidents damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), then we suggest going to HPI-Check.
