Defect
On foot-operated parking brake assemblies, the torque specification for the bolt securing the pedal to the body was incorrect, resulting in insufficient clamping force on some vehicles. During use, the bolt may loosen and fall out. In the worst case, the parking brake may become inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the parking brake pedal mounting bolt for proper torque. Bolts found loose must be retightened to the specified torque. If a bolt has already fallen out, replace the parking brake pedal assembly with a new unit and torque the mounting bolt to the specified value.

状況
（１）足踏み式パーキングブレーキにおいて、ペダルをボデーに固定するボルトの締付トルク指示が不適切なため、締結力が不足しているものがある。そのため、使用過程で当該ボルトが緩んで脱落し、最悪の場合、パーキングブレーキの操作ができなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
（１）全車両、当該ボルトの締付状態を点検し、緩みのあるものは適正トルクで増し締めし、脱落しているものはパーキングブレーキペダルを新品に交換し当該ボルトを適正トルクで締付ける。
