ROLLS-ROYCE MOTORS, INC. recall for service brakes, hydraulic, reported to NHTSA on Apr 3, 1995, covering about 92 vehicles.
The problem
The lower steering column linkage heat shield can come in contact with a brake hydraulic system pipe mounted to the engine assembly, eventually resulting in a hydraulic fluid leak.
The risk
If a hydraulic fluid leak occurs, warning lights indicating loss of fluid and loss of system pressure will become illuminated. Front brake effectiveness will be lost, although rear braking would remain unaffected.
The fix
Dealers will reposition the affected hydraulic pipe and replace any damaged pipe.
