SUBJECT:
PARKING BRAKE LEVER MAY NOT HOLD
MODELS AFFECTED: 1987 SKYHAWK
CONDITION
General Motors has determined that certain 1987 Buick Skyhawk models fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
105, "Hydraulic Brake Systems". These vehicles might have been assembled with parking brake lever mechanisms which will not properly engage when
applied.
In some of these vehicles, the parking brake can be applied and appear to be properly engaged and later, when the vehicle is unattended, it could
disengage. If the transmission were neither in gear (manual transmission) nor in Park (automatic transmission), the vehicle could unexpectedly roll. In
such an instance the vehicle might roll away uncontrolled, which could result in a vehicle crash without prior warning.
