What is wrong
On certain passenger and limousine vehicles, contact can occur between a brake pipe or fuel pipe and the antilock braking system (ABS) modulator pump. Should this happen, it could result in eventual abrasive damage to either pipe, leading to possible leakage.
The risk
This could affect the stopping distance when the brakes are applied, which could result in a crash, or a fire could result if there is leakage from the fuel line.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the installation of the affected components and, if necessary, replace it with a new one. Owner notification began october 7, 2003. Owners should contact bentley at 1-[removed].
