Service brakes, hydraulic: foundation components: hoses, lines/piping, and fittingsReported January 24, 1995 · 68 vehicles affected

What is wrong: Certain of the brake hoses for the right rear wheel were routed incorrectly so that contact is made with a suspension component. This causes abrasion to the hose and eventual leakage.
Risk: A leaking brake hose reduces braking capability, increases stopping distances and increases the risk of an accident.
Remedy: The right rear brake hose will be inspected to determine if it is routed correctly. Misrouted hoses will be inspected for damage, replaced if necessary, and correctly routed.
