Record by record

27 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.

Work done

How it is said to have ended

  • says it held for a while1
  • says it came back3
  • result not stated7

A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

      Not stated

      What the documents say to do

      Parking brake linings worn out prematurely, parking brake does not hold (PBR single-shoe drum-in-hat)

      Confirm

      • On complaint vehicles examined in the field, wear occurred earlier and to a greater extent on the driver's side parking brake unit and was largely localized at the tip of one of the linings.

      Repair

      1. A revised clip designed to exert less force on the shoe went into MY 2003 production and into the service part stream. Installing the newer clip and replacing worn linings has been shown to remedy the defect.
      2. The closing report lists a bulletin of Aug 2004 as 02-05-26-001B "Brakes - Parking Brake Shoe Retainer Clip Availability", announcing a new retainer clip service kit for DIH-equipped vehicles.

      Caution

      • The vehicles warn the operator with a chime if driven over 3 mph (= 4.83 km/h) with the parking brake engaged.
