Chevrolet TSB #14748A
2011 Chevrolet Cruze
TSB Document:
Affected Component: PARKING BRAKE
- Summary
- "14748A - SPECIAL COVERAGE (REVISED POPULATION). GM HAS RECEIVED A SMALL NUMBER OF REPORTS REGARDING 2010 (NON NORTH AMERICAN), 2011 AND 2012 MODEL YEAR CHEVROLET CRUZE VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION (RPO MZ0, MF3 OR MR5) EXPERIENCING UNINTENDED MOVEMENT AFTER BEING PARKED ON AN INCLINED SURFACE. THE AFFECTED VEHICLES ARE EQUIPPED WITH A SELF-ADJUST PARK-BRAKE SYSTEM. THE SELF-ADJUSTING PARK-BRAKE SYSTEM ON THESE VEHICLES MEETS ALL RELEVANT REGULATORY STANDARDS FOR PARK-BRAKE PERFORMANCE. BUT IF A DRIVER PARKS A VEHICLE WITH THESE FEATURES ON A SLOPE AND EXITS THE VEHICLE WITHOUT (I) FIRMLY ENGAGING THE PARK BRAKE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE OWNERÂ’S MANUAL INSTRUCTIONS AND (II) ENGAGING THE TRANSMISSION IN GEAR, THE VEHICLE COULD ROLL AWAY AND CAUSE A CRASH. TO HELP ENSURE THAT THE CONDITION DESCRIBED ABOVE DOES NOT OCCUR, GM IS SENDING LETTERS TO ALL INVOLVED CUSTOMERS TO REMIND THEM OF THE CORRECT PROCEDURE FOR PARKING THEIR VEHICLE, AS SPECIFIED IN THE VEHICLEÂ’S OWNER MANUAL."
