What's wrong, in plain English
General Motors is recalling certain Chevrolet Express Cutaway and GMC Savana Cutaway vehicles built with optional body mounts. On these vehicles, the brake line may not have enough clearance from the body mounts. Because of this, the brake line can rub against the body mount and become damaged over time, which can cause the brake line to leak brake fluid.
