DUE TO A COMBINATION OF DISC BRAKE PAD WEAR AND TURN STOP WEAR ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, THERE MAY BE AN INCREASE IN BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL AND A REDUCTION IN FRONT BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS FOLLOWING A FULL TURN. ALSO, A FRAME CRACK COULD DEVELOP AND COULD EXTEND THROUGH ALL OR MOST OF THE RAIL SECTION. Remedy: UPON INSPECTION DEALER WILL REPLACE EITHER THE LEFT OR RIGHT TURN STOP BRACKET TO CORRECT THE FRONT BRAKES. IF FRAME IS CRACKED IT WILL BE WELDED AND A ROD REINFORCEMENT WILL BE INSTALLED OVER THE CRACKED AREA.
