These ABS actuators may have been assembled with a gear pump containing a damaged O-ring resulting in a lack of brake fluid pressure.
Consequence
Insufficient brake fluid pressure may lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
ADVICS has notified the vehicle manufacturers that purchased the brake actuators. Those manufacturers have filed recalls with NHTSA and will notify the affected owners. Dealers will inspect and replace the actuators, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on March 31, 2016. Owners may contact ADVICS customer service at 1-513-696-5450.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
