What NHTSA recorded

The brake drums on the involved vehicles may be defective. If a vehicle with defective brake drums is driven in such a way as to increase heat build up, the brake drums could crack and possibly disintegrate, causing loss of braking action on the rear wheels.

Possible consequence

Should brake drum failure occur, the stopping distanceof the vehicle will be increased and loss of vehicle control and an accidentmay occur.

Remedy

Dealer will correct by installing new brake drums. If a balance vibration problem occurs after correction, the rear wheels will be spun balanced. Owner will be reimbursed for any labor charges.
