Details

What's wrong: When applied, the parking brake lever assembly may release one or more teeth, reducing the cable load to the rear brakes.

Why it matters: Depending on the extent of the lever release and roadlevel. The parking brake may not hold the vehicle, allowing it to roll, whichcould result in an accident. Vehicle does not comply with fmvss 105.

The fix: Replace parking brake lever assembly.
