The short version

Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. reported a problem with the parking brake. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The rust prevention coating on the rear brake operating shafts could have been peeled off during the assembly process. As a result, water entering the rear brake caliper boot may cause the parking brake operating shafts to corrode and possibly bind.

WHY IT MATTERS

If the parking brake operating shafts bind, the parking brakes may not engage or disengage fully. If the parking brakes do not engage properly, the vehicle could rollaway, increasing the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

MMNA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear brake caliper assemblies, free of charge.
