| Details | On certain vehicles, the right rear parking brake cable may disconnect from the parking brake actuating lever when the parking brake pedal is released and the parking brake shoes are frozen to the drum. The cable may lift off the lever as it moves when the parking brake is released, if the brakes are sufficiently frozen so that the lever does not move. Should the right rear parking brake cable becomes disconnected, the parking brake pedal will exhibit extended travel and may not be able to fully apply the parking brake in subsequent use. If the vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission, and is parked in neutral without a fully applied parking brake, the vehicle may move unintentionally and cause property damage or personal injury to bystanders. Correction: Dealers will install a revised right side actuator with the lever pivot located at the top of the actuator. |
