If the pedal height is incorrect even if the rod operating adapter is adjusted, check that there is no damage in the brake pedal, brake pedal lever, brake pedal support and dash panel.

Even if there is damage, there is no problem if the reserve distance is within the standard value.
If necessary, replace any damaged parts.
