NHTSA recall 94V163000
Parking brake › Conventional › Mechanical › Linkage and cable
Dodge B350 and 2 more
The defect
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.
The risk
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.
The 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.
