Posted on: 2000-03-13
Description
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles.  Certain reservoir tank caps on the brake master cylinder were produced with a worn out die and lack ventilation holes.  As a result, the pressure in the reservoir tank can drop gradually as the brake pad or shoe wears and ambient temperature drops.  Also, the pressure could reach a point that the brake caliper and drum cylinder are pulled back by the vacuum in the reservoir tank when the vehicle is parked for a long time.

Consequence
This condition could cause reduced brake efficiency, increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
Dealers will inspect the reservoir cap and replace it, if necessary.
