  1. Parking brake

    NHTSA 94V183000 Reported 3,762 vehicles potentially affected GENERAL MOTORS CORP.

    The auto apply parking brake system fails to release the parking brakes after action has been taken to release them or the system may automatically apply the parking brake while the vehicle is in motion. In either case, if the driver does not notice the telltale red brake light and stop the vehicle, the system will fail.

    Remedy: Dealers will update the components of the auto apply parking brake system, bleed the hydraulic power system, and adjust the parking brake.

    Model years: 1990

  2. Foundation components (service brakes)

    NHTSA 93V214000 Reported 128 vehicles potentially affected GENERAL MOTORS CORP.

    The front left brake pipe chafes against the power steering hose which wears a hole in the brake pipe. This causes a potential loss of brake fluid resulting in loss of front brake system operations.

    Remedy: Dealers will install a new brake pipe with sufficient clearance to prevent this condition.

    Model years: 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993

  3. Column shift (power train)

    NHTSA 89V127000 Reported 1,178 vehicles potentially affected GENERAL MOTORS CORP.

    The shift lever may not drop into park detent when placed in the park position.

    Remedy: Adjust steering column and shift linkage to obtain clearance between the shift rod lever and the dash panel opening.

    Model years: 1989
