Defect Description

Advics North America, Inc. (Advics) is recalling certain ABS Brake Actuators manufactured October 12, 2015, to January 29, 2016. These actuators are made for Toyota vehicles as part numbers 44540-06260, 44540-06370, 44540-0E240, 44540-0E250, 44540-0E260, 44540-0E270, 44540-0E280, 44540-0E290, 44540-0E261, 44540-0E271, 44540-0R170, 44540-0R220, 44540-33450-A, 44540-33750-A, 44540-48430-A, 44540-48440-A, 44540-48620-A, 44540-48600-A, 44540-48610-A, 44540-48630-A, 44050-0R330, and for Nissan vehicles as part numbers 47660 5AA0C, 47660 5AE0C, and 47660 4RB0B. These ABS actuators may have been assembled with a gear pump containing a damaged O-ring resulting in a lack of brake fluid pressure.

Consequence / Hazard

Insufficient brake fluid pressure may lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Proposed Solution

ADVICS has notified the vehicle manufacturers that purchased the brake actuators. Those manufacturers have filed recalls with NHTSA and will notify the affected owners. Dealers will inspect and replace the actuators, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on March 31, 2016. Owners may contact ADVICS customer service at 1-513-696-5450.
