Recall Type: Vehicle

Defect Summary: On certain coupe and spider vehicles equipped with manual six-speed transmission, there is a non-conforming right-angle union in the clutch pump. this could cause a hair-line crack to form under normal conditions due to heat, which could result in fluid leakage from the braking/clutch hydraulic system.

Consequence Summary: This leakage, in turn, will cause the braking/clutch hydraulic system fluid level warning light to illuminate and, if not remedied, could ultimately affect the functionality of the clutch control pedal. this could result in a reduction in the driver's ability to shift gears while driving, rendering the vehicle inoperable which could result in a crash.
