Campaign - Brake Pedal Interference: Overview

9217chevy02

Number: 92C10

Section: 5

Date: FEB., 1992


Subject:
PRODUCT CAMPAIGN 92C10 - INSTRUMENT PANEL LEFT HAND LOWER TRIM PANEL/BRAKE PEDAL INTERFERENCE

Model and Year:
1992 CHEVROLET CORVETTE


To: All Chevrolet Dealers

General Motors has determined that certain 1992 Chevrolet Corvette model vehicles may experience their brake lights staying on and/or a lack of pedal return, which may cause light brake drag. Brake drag may, in turn, cause roughness, vibration, noise, a noticeable slowing of the vehicle and/or automatic transmission downshift when attempting to maintain a constant speed. Also, the cruise control may not set or the ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation - "Traction Control") may not function.

To prevent this condition from occurring, dealers are to inspect for proper clearance between the brake pedal arm and the instrument panel (I/P) left-hand lower trim panel. If clearance is not sufficient, the trim panel will be modified with a heat gun.

Owners of vehicles involved in this campaign are being contacted by the Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center (CAC) on a branch-by-branch basis in conjunction with Product Emission Campaign 92C11. Refer to 92C11 for details.
