Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
THE LOOSE PIVOT BOLT COULD ALLOW THE PARKING BRAKES TORELEASE AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN SET MANUALLY; IF THE BOLT FALLS OFF WHEN THEAUTOMATIC APPLY PARKING BRAKE IS SET, THERE IS INSUFFICIENT BRAKING TO HOLD THEVEHICLE IF IT IS PARKED ON AN INCLINE. BOTH OF THESE CONDITIONS COULD RESULT INVEHICLE MOVEMENT WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING AND POSSIBLY IN AN ACCIDENT.
THE AUTOMATIC APPLY TRANSMISSION MOUNTED PARKING BRAKE LEVER PIVOT BOLT “FINGER” MAY BE LOOSE.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
