Missing DOT Information on Label/FMVSS 116

AP Racing is recalling certain 16.9oz bottles of Super 600 Brake Fluid, part number CP5600. The label on this brake fluid is missing the required DOT information that the brake fluid is for Track/Race applications and not for use in vehicles on highways, nor does it state that it is DOT 4 brake fluid. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 116, "Motor Vehicle Brake Fluids."

Component: EQUIPMENT

# of Units Affected: 2,400
