Service brakes, hydraulic

Summary: Heavy load and/or highly compressed rear suspension could cause the rear brake hose to contact the passenger's right footpeg securing stud, possibly fraying the hose. Consequence of defect: the hydraulic brake hose could wear through, causing a leak and resulting in the failure of the rear brake system. Failure of the rear brake system may contribute to an accident and personal injury.
