What's wrong, in plain English
On some 2024-2025 Toyota Tacoma 4-wheel drive vehicles, mud and dirt can build up inside the rear wheels and damage the rear brake hoses. This damage can cause a brake fluid leak. A brake fluid leak can reduce the vehicle's braking ability, meaning it could take longer to stop. Dealers will replace both rear brake hoses, free of charge.
