Affected vehicles

Mazda Demio 2007

Hazard

In the parking brake equalizer (a device that distributes parking brake operating force evenly to both wheels), some units have excessive gaps at the brake cable assembly point. The brake cable may enter this gap, and in the worst case, the brake cable can disengage from the equalizer during parking brake operation, resulting in reduced parking braking capacity.

駐車制動装置のイコライザ(駐車ブレーキの操作力を左右の車輪に均等に振り分ける装置)において、ブレーキケーブル組付部の隙間が広いものがある。そのため、ブレーキケーブルが当該隙間に入り込み、最悪の場合、駐車ブレーキ操作時にブレーキケーブルがイコライザから外れ、駐車制動能力が低下するおそれがある。

Remedy

All vehicles: re-stake the equalizer gap.
