Possibility that vehicle was incorrectly built with 3-speed transmission parking brake cable compon- ents. A parking brake so equipped will function normally, but causes the intermediate cable to chafe on the flanges of the transmission mount support. This chafing could result in separation of the cable, causing the parking brake to become inoperative. (Inspect and install correct parking brake cable components as required.)
