ON VEHICLES WITH FOUR WHEEL DRIVE AND AUTOMATIC LOCKING FRONT HUBS, THE FRONT BRAKE HOSE, BETWEEN THE BODY BRAKE TUBING AND THE FRONT AXLE CONNECTOR, MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED (TWISTED) DURING VEHICLE ASSEMBLY. IF TWISTED, THE HOSE CAN BE LOOPED UPON ITSELF IN A MANNER THAT MAY ALLOW ABRASIVE CONTACT DURING NORMAL SUSPENSION TRAVEL. THIS COULD RESULT IN EVENTUAL HOSE FAILURE AND PARTIAL LOSS OF BRAKING CAPABILITY. CORRECTION: VEHICLES WILL BE INSPECTED AND BRAKE LINES REROUTED IF NECESSARY.
On certain vehicles, the brake booster vacuum hose port in the base of the carburetor could become blocked with frozen moisture after an extended period of highway driving at low ambient temperatures. This may result in intermittant loss of brake power assist on a second application of the brake pedal. Correction: the brake booster vacuum hose will be relocated to the intake manifold.
