Consumer Description

I NOTICED A BRAKE FLUID LEAK UNDER THE VEHICLE IN MY GARAGE. AFTER CHECKING UNDER THE HOOD, I NOTICED BRAKE FLUID SPLATTERED AROUND ENGINE COMPARTMENT. WHEN I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID,THE TOP WAS LOOSE,AND THE RESERVOIR WAS LOW. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I NOTICED THIS, AND WHEN I CHECKED MY VIN# AGAINST RECALLS, THERE IS NONE FOR THIS PROBLEM FOR MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE. BUT I KNOW THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL IN EFFECT FOR 2001-2002 TRIBUTES FOR THIS PROBLEM PER NHTSA 12V016000. IT SPECIFICALLY REFERENCES THE MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR CAP, WHICH I THINK MAY BE MY PROBLEM ALSO. *TR
