What is wrong
The flexible hose carrying central hydraulic system fluid between the regulator and the accumulator could leak.

Dealers will replace the hose. Owner notification is expected to begin april 7, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact bentley at 1-[removed].
