Subject vehicles:caprice, caprice classic, custom cruiser, deville,electra, estate wagon, fleetwood, lesabre, ninety-eight, parisienne,park avenue.(all 1984-86 gm vehicles equipped with hydroboost ii systems)analysis:consumer complaints allege several problems involving the powersteering and power brake systems of these vehicles.These problemsinclude: power steering fluid loss, power brake fluid loss, leakage fromthe hydro-boost ii power brake booster, broken booster seals, and mastercylinder failure.All problems seem to be related to the hydro-boost iipower assist system, in which the working fluid provides power assist to boke booster.The effect of these problems could be a loss of steeringcontrol and/or brake effectiveness.Status:the voluminous amount of data supplied by gm is presently being coded by a contractor and should be completed by 12/30/87. Gm data indicated a 50% weibull distribution failure at 50k miles for the piston push-rod seal. This pe looks to have an extrodinarily high frequency, although the severity apears to be low.Should be interesting discussing this for upgrade/closure.===

Prndl readout stays on the "p" (for park) position. I have to count the gears when i operate the transmission selector. Cable that links the prndl needle to the transmission selector has broken (happened once before). This may be a developing safety defect trend in this great car.
