THE TWO HALVES OF THE BRAKE BOOSTER MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY JOINED DURING MANUFACTURE. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THESE HALVES COULD SEPARATE UNDER A HEAVY BRAKE APPLICATION, RESULTING IN DIMINISHED BRAKING POWER WITH THE RISK OF AN ACCIDENT. CORRECTION: VEHICLES WILL BE INSPECTED AND BRAKE BOOSTER UNITS WILL BE REPLACED IF NECESSARY.
