71,000 vehicles recalled

1999 MAZDA 626 -- Vehicle description: Passenger vehicles. Certain reservoir tank caps on the brake master cylinder were produced with a worn out die and lack ventilation holes. As a result, the pressure in the reservoir tank can drop gradually as the brake pad or shoe wears and ambient temperature drops. Also, the pressure could reach a point that the brake caliper and drum cylinder are pulled back by the vacuum in the reservoir tank when the vehicle is parked for a long time.

This condition could cause reduced brake efficiency, increasing the risk of a crash.

Dealers will inspect the reservoir cap and replace it, if necessary. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #00V074000 »
