VEHICLES WERE BUILT WITH A 2.00 INCH MASTER CYLINDER IN PLACE OF THE 1.75 INCH MASTER CYLINDER NORMALLY UTILIZED. THE LARGER MASTER CYLINDER WILL PROVIDE LESS LINE PRESSURE TO THE WHEEL CYLINDERS FOR A GIVEN PEDAL PRESSURE. THIS COULD RESULT IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES AND A POSSIBLE VEHICLE CRASH.rnCORRECTION: CORRECT 1.75 INCH MASTER CYLINDER WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.
