- Summary

- Consequence
- Malfunction of the air brake system could result in a vehicle crash.
- Remedy

Has your Labrie been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Labrie dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
