“If the electronic parking brake (EPB) circuit board fractures, the warning light will illuminate and the EPB cannot be applied or released,” the ACCC recall notice said.


“If this happens, the vehicle may be in breach of the Australian Design Rules (ADRs) for motor vehicles.”


The ACCC warmed if the electronic parking brake could not be applied or released it could lead to an “increased risk of injury to the vehicle occupants and other road users”.
