What NHTSA recorded

Under certain circumstances, the front wheel may grab when the front service brake is actuated. This could result in a wedge type action of one shoe between the brake drum and the twist key, which in turn could produce an irreversible braking effect.

Remedy

Dealer will install a modified front brake assembly without charge to owner.
