To meet this requirement, two main criteria must be met. The cable tension must be sufficiently high, and the cable sheath spring must operate freely to provide a constant parking brake force in both forward and reverse directions. FMVSS 1 : 105 – Hydraulic and electric brake systems FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : The identified failure of the parking brake may result in a crash, which is assessed as “unlikely”. The driver could be inside the vehicle and will therefore be able to apply the brakes if the vehicle begins to move. Also, the vehicle is more likely to move when fully loaded and parked on a high grade, which is not a common operational situation. Description of the Cause : The cable route was changed during a design update. Clamps around the Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-530 Page 2 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 parking brake cable sheath were added causing additional tension for this new routing, resulting in an incorrect value when validating it.
