IMPORTANT RECALL INFORMATION!!

SIR-VRX · Postby **SIR-VRX** » Wed Mar 18, 2009 10:57 pm

The Lancer and Outlander is being recalled in the USA for a possible faulty brake check-valve on CVT models.

Details HERE

I'll keep an eye on anything on the Australian Recalls site, just incase.

Chances are that we in Australia should be immune from the defect, as the USDM Lancers/Outlanders use a different brake booster, being LHD.
