Issue

On certain vehicles, the parking brake cables may disengage from the crank lever at the rear caliper. This could cause the parking brake to become inoperative. If this occurs and the transmission is left in a gear other than ‘Park’ while the ignition is on and the driver leaves the vehicle, the vehicle could roll away, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install a clip at the parking brake cable end to prevent the cable from disengaging from the rear brake caliper crank lever.
