If the vacuum pump becomes inoperable, the brake warning light will illuminate and the brake warning buzzer will alert the vehicle operator. Vacuum pump inoperability will result in reduced brake power assist, which may increase stopping distances and could lead to greater risk of crash. Please reference Safety Recall Bulletin SR-13-001 for remediation.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2013/MC-10171517-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2013/MC-10171517-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10171517","components":[{"id":"brakes","name":"Brakes","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"MITSUBISHI","model":"I-MIEV","year_from":2012,"year_to":2012,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2012_mitsubishi_i-miev"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
