The flexible hydraulic brake hoses transmit hydraulic pressure from the steel brake lines on the body to the calipers. Inspect the hoses at least twice a year.
Inspect the hoses for the following conditions:
| • | Road hazard damage |
| • | Cracks |
| • | Chafing of the outer cover |
| • | Leaks |
| • | Blisters |
| • | Proper routing and mounting |
Use a light and mirror for an adequate inspection. Replace any brake hoses with any of the above conditions.
