What is wrong
NOTE: VEHICLES WITH 7.3 LITRE DIESEL AND 7.5 LITRE EFI ENGINES OVER 8500 LB. GVWR AND 4X4 MODELS WITH 5.8 LITRE EFI ENGINES. WHEN VEHICLES ARE OPERATED AT OR NEAR GVWR OR GCWR (GROSS COMBINATION WEIGHT RATING WHEN TRAILER TOWING), BRAKE EFFECTIVENESS MAY DIMINISH DUE TO OVERHEATING OF THE FRONT BRAKES. THIS MAY RESULT IN LONGER THAN NORMAL STOPPING DISTANCES AND A LOW BRAKE PEDAL AND COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.
CORRECTION: SNAP-IN INSULATORS THAT ATTACH TO EACH OF THE FRONT BRAKE CALIPER PISTONS WILL BE INSTALLED ON ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES. IN ADDITION, VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 7.5 LITRE ENGINES WILL HAVE INSULATION INSTALLED ON ENGINE COMPARTMENT BRAKE LINES.
