An official CAA Japan notice concerns Passenger car (Honda N-BOX SLASH) - Repair. Defect in the braking system (electric parking brake actuator). ■ Defective part (component name): Braking system (electric parking brake actuator). ■ Condition and cause of the structure, equipment, or performance considered noncompliant with standards: In the electric parking brake, the amount of grease applied to lubricate the internal gears of the electric parking brake actuator and the volume of the grease reservoir are inappropriate. Repeated driving and stopping on uphill roads may cause oil from grease accumulated in the reservoir to enter the motor and mix with wear particles inside it, generating electrically conductive foreign matter. Continued use in this condition may cause the foreign matter to adhere to the motor terminals and short-circuit the motor circuit, illuminating the warning light and preventing the parking brake from engaging or being released. Published 2019-06-20.
What to do now
(Recall) 4519 ■ Corrective measures: Replace both the left and right electric parking brake actuators with improved parts on all vehicles.
