  Service brakes, hydraulic › Foundation components › Master cylinder
  Covers: Dodge Intrepid 2000, Chrysler Concorde 2000

  Reported issue: Vehicle description: non-abs equipped passenger vehicles. The brake master cylinder piston retainer snap ring may have been bent inward during the assembly process. The master cylinder piston may be in a "brake applied" position due to the damaged piston retainer snap ring. When the piston is in the applied position, the fluid compensation ports are closed which results in a brake drag condition.

  Possible consequence: If the brake overheat, brake fading could lead to an increase in needed stopping distance. Should a driver not anticipate the extra stopping distance, this condition could cause a crash.

  Remedy: Dealers will replace the brake master cylinder.
