Recall 2012374

The issue

On certain vehicles, the parking brake cable lock nut may have been improperly tightened during vehicle assembly and could loosen over time, allowing the parking brake lever stroke length to increase gradually. If left unchecked, the parking brake stroke could increase until the parking brake no longer fully applies. This could allow the vehicle to roll away causing a risk or property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect the lock nut and tighten if necessary.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, le contre-écrou du câble de frein de stationnement peut avoir mal été serré pendant l'assemblage et pourrait se desserrer avec le temps, augmentant graduellement la longueur de la course du levier du frein. S'il n'est pas inspecté, la course du frein de stationnement pourrait augmenter jusqu'à ce que ne se serre plus. Cela pourrait faire bouger le véhicule et augmenter les risques de dommages aux biens ou causer des blessures corporelles. Correction : Les concessionnaires doivent inspecter le contre-écrou et le serrer au besoin.
