Consumer Description

MY DODGE NITRO IS NOT ABLE TO PASS SAFETY INSPECTION DUE TO NON-WORKING PARKING BRAKE. MECHANIC INSPECTED ROTORS AND DRUMS. EVERYTHING LOOKED OKAY. PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE TOO MUCH SLACK AND BRAKE HANDLE BUT NO WAY TO ADJUST. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEM; EVEN A RECALL BUT ONLY FOR MANUAL TRANSMISSION NITROS, MINE IS AUTOMATIC. I FEEL A RECALL IS WARRANTED. *TR
