What is the danger
The engine position sensor signal contact of the braking system can be impaired, leading to an unexpected failure of the hydraulic braking assistance. This requires greater pressure on the pedal and results in a longer braking distance, and in a failure of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) systems. This increases the risk of accidents and injuries.
