The issue
VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A TRANSMISSION MOUNTED INTERNAL EXPANDING TYPE PARKING BRAKE MAY HAVE A CRACKED PARKING BRAKE ACTUATING LEVER CAM. UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS, IN TIME, THE CRACK CAN GRADUALLY WIDEN, REDUCING THE FORCE OF THE PARKING BRAKE. THE WIDENING OF THE CRACK CAN ALSO OCCUR WHEN THE PARKING BRAKE IS APPLIED. IF THIS SHOULD HAPPEN TO AN UNATTENDED VEHICLE, IT COULD ROLL AWAY UNCONTROLLED.
