SUSPENSION - FRONT - STABILIZER BAR | |||
06/04/2001 | |||
While traveling at approximately 45 mph steering became very loose and difficult to control while brakes suddenly became mushy and increased stopping distance. dealership examined vehicle and determined that a clamp that holds hydraulic fluid hose to frame was missing, which allowed the hose to move under hood, causing hose to rupture. also, a stabilizer bar was not put in this vehicle to assist with steering control. please provide any additional information/attachments. *note: the dealership mentioned to consumer that this problem occurred in one other vehicle.*ak |
