SUBJECT:
BRAKE PEDAL PIVOT INTERFERENCE
MODELS AFFECTED:
1985 AND 1986 FWD DE VILLE AND FLEETWOOD 1986 ELDORADO AND SEVILLE
Some 1985 and 1986 Front Wheel Drive De Villes and Fleetwoods built prior to B. C. # 276692, 1986 Eldorados built prior to B. C. # 605210 and
Sevilles built prior to B. C. # 803755 may experience a condition in which the brake pedal releases slowly after a normal brake apply. This condition
may not occur every time the brakes are applied and may sometimes result in dragging brakes if the pedal does not return to the fully released position.
This condition may be caused by interference of the pedal mounting bracket with the pedal pivot. If this condition is encountered, the following
procedure should be used to modify the brake pedal.
1.
Remove the lower sound insulator panel.
A.
Remove both the left and right sound insulator panels on De Ville and Fleetwood.
B.
Remove only the driver's side sound insulator panel on Eldorado and Seville.

2.
