ISSUE:
Some vehicles may have experienced deterioration of the front brake caliper piston boots resulting from exposure to high operating temperatures during
severe service.
ACTION:
Replace the caliper piston boots with a new, more robust service caliper piston boot. The new silicone rubber boot can withstand higher operating
temperatures without damage. The new boot is completely interchangeable with the prior design and will become the only service boot available.
The heat damaged boots should be replaced with the new Boot (E7TZ.2207-A). Refer to the appropriate Service Manual for removal and installation
procedures.
