Reported risk: It is possible that a number of vehicles may have had the brake system filled with the incorrect brake fluid which can cause corrosion in the hydraulic ABS modulator. This can cause internal valves to stick which can result in possible longer brake pedal travel. In extreme cases this could result in increased brake pedal travel and stopping distances. Remedy: Recall all affected vehicles to check the ABS modulator and to replace the brake fluid. If found defective replace the hydraulic ABS modulator.
