Details

On certain vehicles, a control valve in the vacuum hose connecting the brake booster to the intake manifold may not open or close fully at temperatures below -4 degrees F.

This condition could cause insufficient vacuum to be provided to the brake booster resulting in possible loss of power brake assist.

Correction: A vacuum by-pass system will be installed on affected vehicles.
