0 FEDERAL MOGUL BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER Recall Overview: EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION: FEDERAL-MOGUL AFTERMARKET BRAKE MASTER CYLINDERS WITH THE QUICK TAKE-UP VALVE DESIGN MANUFACTURED FROM JANUARY 2, 1998, THROUGH MARCH 12, 2002, SOLD FOR USE ON LIGHT TRUCKS AND PASSENGER VEHICLES. THESE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDERS MAY NOT HAVE THE SNAP RING PROPERLY INSTALLED IN THE ASSEMBLY. IN SUCH CASES, AS PRESSURE IS APPLIED TO THE QUICK TAKE-UP VALVE VIA APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES, THE VALVE CAN BECOME DISENGAGED INSIDE THE MASTER CYLINDER CAST HOUSING. WHEN DISENGAGED, THE VALVE CAN APPLY PRESSURE TO THE MASTER CYLINDER'S PLASTIC BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR, WHICH IS NESTED IN A METAL CAST HOUSING. IF THE RESERVOIR BECOMES PARTIALLY DETACHED FROM THE CAST HOUSING, A RAPID LEAKAGE OF BRAKE FLUID OCCURS WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS APPLIED.
