THE ADAPTER O-RING GROOVES BETWEEN THE MASTER CYLINDER AND THE REMOTE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR ADAPTER WERE MACHINED TOO DEEP. THIS CONDITION COULD RESULT IN FLUID BLOWING BY THE O-RINGS WHEN SUBJECTED TO HIGH PRESSURE, SUCH AS DURING A PANIC STOP SITUATION. THIS COULD RESULT IN A PARTIAL TO TOTAL LOSS OF BRAKING CAPABILITY.rnCORRECTION: A NEW REMOTE BRAKE FLUID ADAPTER WILL BE INSTALLED ON THE MASTER CYLINDER.
