connected to the traction control system modulator valve. This contact can
chafe the brake line resulting in a brake fluid leak.
Brake fluid leakage can cause reduced brake effectiveness and increased stopping
distances.
Dealers will install a brake line clip to ensure proper clearance. Also the
brake lines will be inspected to any damage caused by this condition and will
replace any damaged lines.
Owner notification is expected to begin during April 1998. Owners who take
their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not
receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Chevrolet at
