Recall history
1 distinct campaigns affect this selection. Announcement dates below are different from vehicle model years. A campaign may cover multiple years.
94V163000 · Parking Brake:Conventional:Mechanical:Linkage And Cable
Reported: 1994-09-16 (September 16, 1994)
THE PARKING BRAKE CABLE IS ROUTED TO THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL CAUSING IT TO CROSS AND CONTACT THE STEEL BRAKE LINE. THIS CAN CAUSE THE ABRASION AND RUPTURE OF THE STEEL BRAKE LINE RESULTING IN A LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID.
Consequence: LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID DUE TO THE RUPTURE OF THE STEEL BRAKE LINE CAUSES LOSS OF REAR BRAKING CAPABILITY WHICH CAN RESULT IN EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCES AND CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REROUTE THE PARKING BRAKE CABLE AWAY FROM THE STEEL BRAKE LINE. THE STEEL BRAKE LINE WILL BE REPLACED IF ABRASION OR WEAR IS EVIDENT.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
1999: 0 complaints · 2000: 2 complaints
| Model year | Through age 0 | Through age 1 | Through age 2 |
