Mitsubishi Fuso is recalling 244 2024-2025 Rizon FEC7K (E16), Rizon FEC9K (E18), and Rizon Fecxk (E18) trucks because the electric parking brake actuator can use an oversized spacer, which creates friction and overheated brake components. Overheated brake components can result in a fire, and Mitsubishi Fuso dealers will complete the recall repair free of charge.

What's wrong?
The electric parking brake actuator is the motorized brake part that applies and releases the parking brake when the truck is parked or held on a grade. On the 2024-2025 Mitsubishi Fuso Rizon FEC7K (E16), Rizon FEC9K (E18), and Rizon Fecxk (E18), that actuator has to move cleanly so the brake releases without dragging.
In NHTSA campaign 25V462, the problem is an internal spacer in the actuator that is too large. The larger spacer leaves the internal pressure plate from seating against the coil the way it was designed to. That poor fit creates extra friction, draws too much current, and overheats brake components. The brake then drags instead of releasing fully, and the worst case described in the filing is fire.
Owners can see EPB and HSA warning lamps on the meter cluster before failure. Those lights point to an electric parking brake or hill start assist fault, and the truck needs dealer attention when they appear.
