S15/T15 Sonoma P/U 2WD V6-4.3L VIN W (1996)
Brake Hose/Line: Recalls
Recall 97V146000: Front Brake Line Damage
Vehicle Description: Light duty passenger pickup trucks equipped with 4.3L engines. The front brake line can contact the left-hand side of the engine oil
pan causing the brake line to wear to the point of brake fluid loss during brake application. Brake fluid loss can reduce braking effectiveness and increase
stopping distances resulting in a vehicle crash without prior warning. Dealers will inspect the clearance between the oil pan and the brake line. If the
clearance is 6mm or less, dealers will install an additional brake line clip and if there was contact between the oil pan and brake line, the front brake line
will be replaced. Owner notification is expected to begin during October 1997. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon
service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020, GMC at 1-800-462-8782 or Isuzu
at 1-800-255-6727. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
