Campaign:
85V040000 on 04/16/1985
Component:
Suspension:front:springs:air suspension system
Manufactured:
10/31/1984 - 02/28/1985
Affected:
19,200
Defect:

Campaign:
86V109000 on 08/12/1986
Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:power assist:hydraulic
Manufactured:
07/31/1984 - 01/31/1986
Affected:
38,000
Defect:
Under certain conditions, contacts in brake system relay could remain closed, causing the brake pump motor to run continuously, causing it to overheat and eventually fail. consequence of defect: should the brake supply motor fail, the power assist to the front brakes will be lost, and after about 10 to 15 normal brake stops, loss of rear brake function will result, causing increased stopping distance. however, the instrument brake warning light will illuminate prior to reduced braking capability and if warning is not heeded, an accident may occur.
Correction:
Replace pump motor relays.
Notes:
System: brakes. vehicle description: passenger cars equipped with a brake system supply motor hydraulic rear brakes and power assist front brakes.
