    Brake pipe (brake line) corrosion and rupture

    Why it happens:The pipes' steel-copper construction is vulnerable to galvanic corrosion if exposed to the environment.

    • If left:Corroded brake lines may rupture during a brake application, reducing brake effectiveness.
    • If left:The worst case is failure of the front circuit (rear-only braking) with a lightly loaded vehicle.
    • If left:GM stated that the brake system is split front/rear and that, should a brake pipe suddenly fail, the vehicle would be capable of stopping with the pressure supplied by the remaining circuit.
    • If left:Most of the failures reported to ODI occurred in vehicles with more than 10 years in service.

    Caution:Analysis of repair records indicates that consumers often elect to repair only the failed circuit.

  • BrakesModel years 2000–2000Government

    Front right-hand brake pipe contact with body cross sill - recall 00V-345

    Why it happens:Clearance between the front right-hand brake pipe and the body cross sill can decrease until they touch.

    • If left:If the pipe is damaged, half of the brake system can lose fluid and pressure.
    • If left:The pedal will be lower than normal and stopping distances longer.

3 records that touch this generation only at its boundary (model year 2000); not counted for this vehicle

In model year 2000 the previous generation was also sold under the same name. These records state no other model year of this generation, and either state years outside it or call the vehicle the old style: they do not say which generation they mean, so they are not counted among the causes or under the cards. The ground for the shared year:

01-03-08-001; Revised Fastener Tightening Specifications; 2000 Chevrolet and GMC C/K Pickup and Utility Models (Classic), 2000 Cadillac Escalade
