Recall 91V-123: 1990–1991 Chevrolet P3, 1990 GMC P3
GENERAL MOTORS CORP. recall for service brakes, hydraulic, reported to NHTSA on Jul 16, 1991, covering about 3,085 vehicles.
The problem
Brakes may have missing rear axle outer bearing retaining ring and or greater than specified bearing end play. Either condition allows the rotor and hub assembly to shift position relative to the spindle. This movement can cause brake caliper piston recede farther than normal into the piston bore which would require greater than normal brake fluid displacement when the service brakes are applied.
The risk
This condition leads to increased stopping distance, andshould minimum stopping distance be required, it could result in an accidentwithout warning.
The fix
Replace both rear axle hubs.
