Electronic Gas/Brake System

Recalled: September 5, 2012 ~36 units affected 12E034

Description

Automotive Innovations, Inc. (AII) is recalling certain Electronic Gas/Brake (EGB) systems, produced from January 1, 2000, through July 11, 2012, installed as adaptive equipment on motor vehicles. The equipment was produced without an adequate back-up brake diagnostic system. As such, it may be possible for the driver to operate the vehicle without knowing the back-up brake is malfunctioning.

Injuries / Consequence

Without the driver being alerted that the back-up brake system has malfunctioned, the driver may continue to operate the vehicle as normal, and if the primary brake system system also fails, braking performance would be reduced increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

AII will notify owners and repair the vehicles free of charge. The safety recall began during September 2012. Owners may cantact AII at 1-508-697-6006.
