NHTSA recall 99V231000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: These vehicles do not comply with requirements of fmvss no. 135, "passenger car brake systems." These vehicles were produced with brake pipe attachment nuts that may not be tightened to specifications.
Why it matters: If the brake pipe nuts are not properly tightened, brake fluid leakage could occur, increasing the brake's stopping distance.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the brake pipe nuts for leakage, verify they are tightened to specifications, and replace the brake pipes if needed.
