Mitsubishi Recalls 73,000 Gallant Passenger Vehicles

Potential Crash Hazard

Mitsubishi is recalling 73,000 MY 2004-2006 Gallant passenger vehicles. During vehicle use the ignition key interlock cable (which is a component of the interlock system) may allow the interlocking cam to fall forward and allow the ignition key to be removed from the ignition switch when the gearshift mechanism is not in the park position.

If the driver does not shift to park before removing the key and fails to engage the parking brake, the vehicle could roll and a crash could occur.

The recall is expected to begin during August 2008 through Mitsubishi dealers.
