The short answer

NHTSA received Mitsubishi Fuso Truck of America, Inc.’s report on Aug 11, 2015. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 19, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

Rust or corrosion will result in swelling of the shims causing an increased brake pedal stroke. The extra brake travel may lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Mitsubishi Fuso Truck of America, Inc.

(MFTA) is recalling certain model year 2012-2016 FEC52 vehicles manufactured February 3, 2011, to March 31, 2015, and 2012-2013 FEC72 and FEC92 vehicles manufactured February 3, 2011, to January 9, 2013.

The affected vehicles have brake pad shims that may rust or corrode after exposure to snow and ice melting chemicals that have been applied to roadways.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt. Owners’ complaints are counted on each vehicle’s page.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
