    Service Brakes, Hydraulic / Foundation Components / Master Cylinder

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. Certain reservoir tank caps on the brake master cylinder were produced with a worn out die and lack ventilation holes. As a result, the pressure in the reservoir tank can drop gradually as the brake pad or shoe wears and ambient temperature drops. Also, the pressure could reach a point that the brake caliper and drum cylinder are pulled back by the vacuum in the reservoir tank when the vehicle is parked for a long time.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This condition could cause reduced brake efficiency, increasing the risk of a crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will inspect the reservoir cap and replace it, if necessary.
