Re: Elantra Recal
 

Here's what it says:

Recall Alert: HYUNDAI ELANTRA, HYUNDAI TIBURON
Owner Notification Date: Aug 19, 2003
Number of Units Potentially Affected: 312292
Component Description: SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION
COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
NHTSA Campaign Number: 03V257000


----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

Description of Recall Campaign: ON CERTAIN PASSENGER AND SPORT UTILITY
VEHICLES, THE REAR BRAKE TUBES PASS BEHIND THE FRONT SUSPENSION CROSSMEMBER.
TWO STEERING GEARBOX MOUNTING BRACKETS ARE WELDED TO THE CROSSMEMBER. ON
VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS), THE REAR BRAKE TUBES
COULD CONTACT BOTH STEERING GEARBOX MOUNTING BRACKETS. ON VEHICLES THAT ARE
NOT EQUIPPED WITH ABS, THE REAR BRAKE TUBES MAY CONTACT ONLY THE LEFT
MOUNTING BRACKET. CONTACT BETWEEN THE REAR BRAKE TUBES AND THE STEERING
BRACKETS COULD CAUSE WEAR AND CORROSION THAT COULD RESULT IN BRAKE FLUID
LEAKAGE.
FLUID LEAKAGE COULD RESULT IN REDUCED BRAKING CAPABILITY INCREASING THE RISK
OF A CRASH.

DEALERS WILL REPOSITION THE REAR BRAKE TUBES SO THEY DO NOT CONTACT THE
MOUNTING BRACKETS, INSTALL BRAKE TUBE CLIPS TO CONTROL THE LOCATION OF THE
REAR BRAKE TUBES, AND APPLY ANTI-CORROSION MATERIAL TO THE TUBES IN THE
AREAS WHERE CONTACT WITH THE MOUNTING BRACKETS MAY HAVE OCCURRED. OWNER
NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2003. OWNERS
SHOULD CONTACT HYUNDAI AT 1-800-633-5151.
