DEFECT #1 - SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
Posted on: 2014-04-24
Description
Westward industries ltd. (westward) is recalling certain model year 2013 go-4 vehicles manufactured june 2013 through december 2013, and equipped with 20v front calipers. Due to a gap between the front brake caliper and the non-vented brake rotor, as the front brake pads become worn, they may be ejected resulting in a reduction of braking performance.
Consequence
Ejection of the front brake pads could lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective Action
Westward will notify owners, and dealers will replace the thin non-vented rotors with thicker vented rotors to reduce the gap between the caliper and rotor, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact westward customer service at 1-204-594-4100.
Notes
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.
