- The fix
- Dealers will replace both hoses and brake fluid reservoir. Owner notification began july 19, 2002. 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 rolls-royce at 1-800-777-6923.
