Filing in context
The Parking brake is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 7 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 43 Mitsubishi notifications from 2020 in this archive. For scale, 1,763 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 3 months.
Defect
In the rear wheel brake calipers, assembly variation in the parking brake actuator shaft causes the rust-preventive coating to peel. Water then intrudes through the seal and into the shaft, causing rust to develop. Continued use allows the rust to progress into the interior of the caliper, impeding shaft rotation and reducing parking brake force. In the worst case, a parked vehicle may begin to roll.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the brake calipers and replace any pre-correction caliper with a corrected part.

状況
後輪のブレーキキャリパーにおいて、駐車ブレーキ駆動用シャフトの組み付けばらつきにより錆防止用の塗装が剥がれることがある。そのため、シール部からシャフト部に水が浸入すると、シャフトに錆が発生し、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、シャフトの錆がキャリパー内部まで進行しシャフトの回転が阻害され、駐車ブレーキの制動力が低下し、最悪の場合、駐車中の車両が動き出すおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、ブレーキキャリパーを確認し、対策前品の場合はブレーキキャリパーを対策品と交換する。
