NHTSA recall 98V033000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: One or both front brake rotor/hubs were built with an out-of-specification gray iron that can fail during the life of the vehicle.
Why it matters: If a driver continues to drive with a cracked rotor, the cracks could continue around the wheel mounting bolt circle and ultimately result in a wheel separation.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the rotors for a core date of "287" and, if found, replace the rotor.
