The problem
DURING VEHICLE OPERATION IN HEAVY RAIN, THERE MAY BE A NOTICEABLE INITIAL REDUCTION IN THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE REAR DISC BRAKE, FOLLOWED BY A GRADUAL RECOVERY TO NORMAL, DRY CONDITION EFFECTIVENESS. IF PEDAL FORCE IS NOT INCREASED TO COMPENSATE, LONGER STOPPING DISTANCES WILL RESULT. IF PEDAL FORCE IS NOT REDUCED AFTER RECOVERY, A REAR WHEEL SKID COULD RESULT.
What owners should do
THE DEALER WILL REPLACE REAR BRAKE PADS WITH PADS WHICH WILL IMPROVE BRAKING PERFORMANCE IN WET WEATHER.
