  1. Hoses, lines/piping, and fittings (service brakes)

    NHTSA 80V153000 Reported 2,343 vehicles potentially affected GENERAL MOTORS CORP.

    Vehicles may be subject to abrasive contact between the rear brake hose/pipe assembly and the axle housing with normal brake usage and rear pad wear. Should this condition occur, it could lead to a brake hose/pipe failure, resulting in loss of brake fluid and loss of rear braking action.

    Remedy: Dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake hose/pipe assembly and mounting brackets at no charge.
