Hazard

In the manual parking brake lever, the spring force of the retention mechanism is inappropriate. When the lever is pulled up and the retention gear teeth are held in a balanced state, vibration or similar forces can cause the balance to be lost, potentially releasing the lever. As a result, parking brake force may decrease, and in worst case scenarios, a parked vehicle may move unintentionally.

手動式駐車ブレーキレバーにおいて、保持機構のばね力が不適切なため、レバーを引き上げた際に保持用ギヤの歯先同士がつり合った状態で保持されると、振動等が加わった場合につり合いが外れ、当該レバーが解除されることがある。そのため、駐車制動力が低下し、最悪の場合、駐車状態の車両が動き出すおそれがある。

Remedy

Replace the parking brake lever with a corrected part on all vehicles.
