NHTSA recall 98V220000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: The front brake lines can develop pin holes due to chaffing against the edge of the pass-through hole in the inner fender.
Why it matters: Brake fluid can leak resulting in deteriorated braking performance and illumination of the brake indicator lamp.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the front brake lines for signs of wear and routing. If the lines are not correctly centered in the pass-through hole, the lines will be repositioned by bending slightly to correct. If there is evidence of brake line wear, the brake line will be replaced.
