Brakes - Pulsations Caused By Front Rotors

Bulletin 85-5-3

Date Mar.. '85

Ref.No. 85-169-5
SUBJECT: BRAKE PULSATIONS CAUSED BY FRONT ROTORS

MODELS AFFECTED: ALL MODELS


We have heard of some instances regarding brake pulsations being repaired by turning the rotors. However, in these instances, there is no mention that the knuckle-to-caliper clearance, as outlined in the service manuals and service bulletin was checked. We suspect that the knuckle-to-caliper clearance is not being checked. It is essential that the clearance, as specified, be obtained or a repeat of this condition may occur.
