Lumina V6-3.1L VIN J (2000)
Right, Front: Recalls
Recall 99V357000; Brake Hose Routing Defect
Vehicle Description: Passenger vehicles.
The right front brake hose is incorrectly routed behind the brake pipe bracket restricting brake hose movement that could cause the hose to either be cut
by the bracket or separated at the caliper. If the hose becomes disconnected or damaged, there can be a loss of pressure in one half of the brake system.
The brake warning lamp may be on, the pedal will be lower than normal, and stopping distances will be longer, increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace and correctly route the right front brake hose assembly.
Owner notification began January 21, 2000.
