The problem
The power brake booster vacuum hose could be improperly installed and not clamped to the brake booster vacuum nipple.
The risk
A disconnected vacuum hose can cause an increase in engine idle speed and loss of brake power assist during brake application without prior warning.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the vehicles to insure that the brake booster vacuum hose connection is fully seated and clamped to the vacuum check valve nipple at the brake booster.
