## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING SCHEDULED INSPECTION THE LEFT BRAKE PEDAL ON THE LEFT(PILOT) SIDE WAS FOUND CRACKED IN THE PIVOT AREA. NEW PART INSTALLED. UNFORTUNATELY CRACK PEDAL WAS DISCARDED BEFORE A PHOTO COULD BE TAKEN, AND PROPER IDENTIFICATION COULD BE MADE TO DETERMINED IF IT WAS OF THE LATEST MOD.
