What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: 1994 models are only in the state of california. The material hardness of the parking brake ratchet bar was greater than that of its mating part, the parking pawl.

Possible consequence

If the parking brake is repeatedly released before the ratchet bar and the parking pawl have completely disengaged, the pawl could wear causing loss of the parking brake.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the parking brake ratchet bar assembly.
