Details

What's wrong: Mitsubishi motors north america, Inc. (mmna) is recalling certain 2012-2017 I-miev vehicles. Water may penetrate the brake assist vacuum pump, causing corrosion and a failure of the brake vacuum pump.

Why it matters: Without the brake vacuum pump, the driver will experience a sudden loss of braking assist, lengthening the distance needed to stop the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Mmna will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake vacuum pump, free of charge. The recall began January 7, 2020.
