Notes: Chevrolet campaign no 76-C-01.POSSIBILITY that the right rear brake pipe atthe connector to the junction block located on the rear axle differential covermay be subject to fatigue failure.on bumpy terrain, it is possible for thebrake pipe to vibrate and fail (crack or break) allowing loss of hydraulicbrake fluid and rear braking action.if this condition exists it could resultin vehicle crash due to increased normal stopping distance.(correct byinspecting and adding an additional retaining clip).

Has your Chevrolet been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

Check your VIN with NHTSA

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Chevrolet dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
