Recall 1988087

The issue

THE SWIVEL TUBE MAY SEPARATE FROM THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CABLE ASSEMBLY. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE OPERATOR NOT BEING ABLE TO SHIFT FROM ONE OF THE DRIVE GEAR POSITIONS TO THE PARK POSITION EVEN THOUGH THE GEAR SELECTOR WOULD INDICATE "PARK". IF THE VEHICLE WERE TO BE PARKED WITHOUT THE HANDBRAKE APPLIED, A ROLL AWAY CONDITION COULD OCCUR. CORRECTION: SHIFT CABLE WILL BE REPLACED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.

Description (français)

Le tube pivotant peut se détacher du câble débrayage de la boîte de vitesses. Le cas échéant, le chauffeur ne peut changer de vitesse, même en plaçant le sélecteur à "PARK". Un véhicule stationné sans que le frein de sécurité soit serré risque de se mettre à rouler de lui-même.
