Oldsmobile Recall : Brakes:Hydraulic:Lines:Metallic

1980 Oldsmobile Omega

Service Brakes, Hydraulic — Foundation Components — Hoses, Lines/Piping, And Fittings

Summary
There is a potential for interference between the clutch control cable and brake pipe in the master cylinder. This can result in rubbing contact when the clutch pedal is operated. Also, the brake pipe clearance to the transmission case may be inadequate. If this condition exists, it could eventually result in a failure in the brake pipe, causing loss of brake fluid and partial loss of braking action.
Actions
The clutch cable routing will be revised to prevent contact with the master cylinder, without charge.
