To ensure accuracy and for your safety, it is recommended to do a free VIN recall check here or here [USA] - UK - Canada.

Bulletins are notices put out by manufacturers in conjunction with the NHTSA to notify the public of manufacturing issues or changes.

Rear seal in a/t blew out caused by rear bearing failure. A/t fluid then corroded parking brake line causing parking brake to not grab. Mechanic told me rear bearing failed due to opposite movement in a/t when in gear or park. There was a recall on parking brake several years ago. Also two recalls now 05v-303 and 05v-304. Could either of these cause this issue? I believe this is dangerous due to parking brake not grabbing and vehicle could roll down hill. *nm
