2009 MINI JOHN COOPER WORKSTransport Canada Recall #2008369
Defect
Certain vehicles were fitted with brake discs for 16 inch wheels rather than 17 inch wheels. The smaller diameter discs could be exposed to higher thermal loads during braking. If this occurred during conditions of intense brake usage, then braking performance would be reduced. Even though sufficient braking capability would be maintained to slow and stop the vehicle, the risk of a crash still exists.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect brake discs & brake pads and replace them if necessary.
