| Manufacturer(s) | Mitsubishi |
| Component | Drivetrain (Other) |

Issue
In the drivetrain, the retaining pin for the parking roller rod in the automatic transmission parking mechanism has insufficient strength, which may cause the pin to crack. In the worst case, the pin fractures, the retainer disengages, and the parking mechanism fails to engage even when the selector is moved to the Park position.
