Renault has extended it recall to 394 Captur models to cover vehicles produced up to March 2015. This is an extension to the recall which was announced in April this year. Renault said that there is a potential of a low leakage from both front flexible brake hoses or in extreme cases a sudden bursting of the flexible hose, which could lead to risk of brake fluid loss and cause reduced braking efficiency.
