| 1989079 | 1989-06-01. Brakes. A FULL-LOCK, LOW SPEED TURNING MANEUVER MAY RESULT IN THE BRAKE CALIPER OF THE INBOARD FRONT WHEEL CONTACTING THE FRONT STABILIZER BAR, CAUSING MOVEMENT OF THE CALIPER PISTON AND DISPLACEMENT OF BRAKE FLUID FROM THE CALIPER BACK TO THE MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR. THIS WOULD CAUSE INCREASED BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL AND REDUCED BRAKE PERFORMANCE ON THE FIRST BRAKE APPLICATION FOLLOWING THE TURN. AFTER ONE BRAKE APPLICATION, THE DISPLACED BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL AND BRAKE PERFORMANCE IS RESTORED. THE SEQUENCE COULD REPEAT, HOWEVER, FOLLOWING THE NEXT LOW SPEED FULL-LOCK TURNING MANEUVER. CORRECTION: ACORN TYPE FRONT SUSPENSION STRUT NUTS WILL BE INSTALLED WHICH WILL SERVE AS STEERING STOPS AND ELIMINATE THE POTENTIAL FOR STABILIZER BAR TO BRAKE CALIPER CONTACT. |

A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
