TSB: REVISION NOTICE January 11, 2019 Rev1: Applicability has been updated to include 2018 - 2019 model year RC F vehicles.
The title, Installation Procedure, and the Required Tools and Equipment section have been updated. Any previous printed versions of this bulletin should be discarded. SUPERSESSION NOTICE The information contained in this bulletin supersedes SB No. L-SB-0054-15. Applicability has been updated to include 2017 model year RC F vehicles. Service Bulletin No. L-SB-0054-15 is obsolete and any printed versions should be discarded. Be sure to review the entire content of this bulletin before proceeding. All 2015 - 2019 model year RC F vehicles are equipped with high-friction brake pads, specifically designed for superior braking performance and response. As a result, the brakes may exhibit a squeal/squeak noise. For customers who find these characteristics objectionable, brake pads with alternative material are now available as service parts. NOTE: Any changes made to the brake pad material may result in altered and possibly reduced braking performance and/or feeling under certain driving conditions, including track use.
Please note disclosures stated in the RC F sales information both in print form and online and discuss with the customer prior to installing the alternate brake pads listed in this Service Bulletin. It is an inherent characteristic of materials and design of brake pads used in this high-performance brake system that brake noise/squeal/squeak may result.
