Defect description

THE FRONT BRAKE LINE CONNECTING THE FRONT SECTION OF THE DUAL BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER WITH THE MASTER BRAKE PIPE CONNECTOR WAS IMPROPERLY ROUTED IN ASSEMBLY. THIS WOULD CAUSE THE BRAKE LINE TO CHAFE AGAINST A CLAMP ON THE EMISSION CONTROL AIR PUMP OUTPUT HOSE. CONTINUED ABRASION MAY CUASE PERFORATION OR RUPTURE OF THE BRAKE LINE, RESULTING IN LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID AND LOSS OF FRONT BRAKING CAPABILITY.

Manufacturer remedy

DEALER WILL REROUTE THE FRONT BRAKE LINE TO PRECLUDE CHAFING. IF DAMAGED, THE BRAKE LINE WILL BE REPLACED, WITHOUT CHARGE TO OWNER.
