Orscheln Products L.L.C. is recalling 14,762 parking brake levers because a mechanical defect may cause the brake to release unexpectedly. The secondary latch on these levers can fail to catch properly, allowing the brake to disengage even if the release button is not pressed. This can cause the vehicle to roll away, which significantly increases the risk of a crash or serious injury. Owners of affected vehicles will be able to have the latch inspected and repaired by a dealer at no cost.
The secondary latch in the parking brake lever may fail to secure the brake system. If this occurs, the vehicle could roll away unexpectedly from a parked position, potentially striking pedestrians, other vehicles, or property.
Free inspection and rework of the secondary latch.
