Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1112600 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | October 7, 2004 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Mitsubishi |
| Component | Parking Cable / Rod |
| Production period | December 11, 1992 — July 15, 1998 |
| Vehicles affected | 2,915 units |
Defect
On vehicles equipped with spring-type parking brakes, the heat treatment of the roller at the wedge tip—which expands the brake shoes—is incorrect, or the wedge components are improperly assembled. This may cause the wedge to fracture. In the worst case, the parking brake malfunctions and parking braking force is reduced.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the roller at the wedge tip. If the roller is deformed or fractured, replace the wedge rod as an assembly with a serviceable unit. If any component differs from the current service part, replace it with the current service part.
