Brake pedal assist function may not operate correctly
MITSUBISHI announced a problem with the Shogun CK (V60 & V70 series) affecting a total of 9,077 vehicles.
Due to an incorrect manufacturing process the resin film within the brake assist accumulator may become damaged. If use continues in this condition, a crack in the diaphragm may occur resulting in the depletion of the nitrogen gas resulting in (1) delay of the brake assist function under rapid braking. (2) An increase in the required brake pedal effort, when the engine is started following a long period with the engine stopped. Vehicles built from 1/1/2001 to 12/31/2002 are at risk.
Recalled vehicles will have the accumulator checked to identify whether or not it is one within the affected batch. Should this be the case, the accumulator will be replaced with one of a modified type.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
find your nearest MITSUBISHI dealer
who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
