LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID AND PRESSURE DUE TO DEFECTIVE/ DAMAGED BRAKE SYSTEM LINE (23 DAYS AFTER GM DEALERSHIP-MALOUF GM IN NORTH BRUNSWICK, NJ INFORMED ME (WHEN I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR AN UNRELATED PROBLEM- ODI # 10293760), THAT THERE IS NO OPEN RECALL). MY PRELIMINARY RESEARCH REVEALED A BULLETIN WHICH NOTES A RECALL; # 71182. INDICATION IS THAT SOME OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE A CLEARANCE CONDITION BETWEEN THE FRONT RIGHT-HAND BRAKE PIPE AND THE BODY CROSS SILL THAT COULD DECREASE TO THE POINT OF ALLOWING CONTACT DURING THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. IF CONTACT OCCURS AND THE BRAKE PIPE BECOMES DAMAGED, IN HALF OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM, THERE CAN BE LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID AND PRESSURE. I WAS LUCKY THAT THIS CONDITION OCCURRED WHILE I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AT VERY SLOW SPEED. THERE IS BRAKE FLUID SPILLAGE IN MY ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND DRIVEWAY. *TR

FOR THEM TO CHECK IF MY COMPLAINT IS RELATIVE TO THE EARLIER RECALL, THERE WOULD BE A COST TO ME OUT OF POCKET. THIS PROBLEM PERSISTS AND OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY. *TR
