THE BRAKE LINE HAD BEEN RUBBING AGAINST THE CHASIS WHERE IT ENTERS THE TIRE WELL. THE LINE HAD WORN FLAT UNTIL IT RUPTURED CAUSING A LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID/PRESSURE. THE BRAKES WERE RENDERED INOPERABLE. THE FAILURE APPEARS TO BE DUE TO A DESIGN FAILURE. AS THE SUSPENSION MOVED UP AND DOWN, THE BRAKE LINE RUBBED AGAINST THE SHARP EDGE OF THE CHASIS - AND OVER THE YEARS HAD WORN THE CHASIS TO A MIRROR SHINE INDICATING THAT IT HAD BEEN RUBBING FOR SOME TIME. THE BRAKE LINE ITSELF WAS WORN FLAT ON THE BACK SIDE UNTIL IT EVENTUALLY RUPTURED.

Official recalls
194V063000 · Power Train:automatic Transmission
Apr 10, 1994
A RETAINING CLIP THAT CONNECTS THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CABLE TO THE SHIFT LEVER ACTUATING ROD CAN HAVE INSUFFICIENT RETENTION PRESSURE AND MAY EVENTUALLY COME OFF AFTER REPEATED SHIFT LEVER OPERATION. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE POSITION OF THE SHIFT LEVER MAY NOT MATCH THE ACTUAL TRANSMISSION GEAR POSITION.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS COULD RESULT IN UNANTICIPATED VEHICLE MOVEMENT AND ACCIDENT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL AN IMPROVED RETAINING CLIP.
