For 1990-2009 cars only
The following items should be inspected:
| • | Flexible braided steel pipes transmit hydraulic pressure from the ridged steel pipes at the master cylinder to the ridged steel pipes mounted to the body. |
| • | Flexible brake hose transmit hydraulic pressure from the ridged steel brake pipes on the body to the calipers at each wheel. Inspect the brake system during tire rotation or every 7,500 miles (10 000 km), whichever comes first. All brake pipes and hoses should be checked for road hazard damage, cracks and chafing of the outer cover and for leaks and blisters. A light and mirror may be needed for an adequate inspection. If any of the above conditions are observed on a brake pipe or hose, replace the affected pipe or hose. |
