ON MARCH 6, 2018 I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH. I REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE IN SLOW MOVING BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC. WHEN I HIT THE BRAKE THE CAR BEGAN TO SLIDE STRAIGHT FORWARD. NO PULSATION FROM THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. I WAS AND AM VERY SURPRISED THAT MY CAR DID NOT STOP IN TIME. IN THE INTERIM I SETTLED MY CLAIM WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. ON 3/29/2018. ON 3/30/2018 I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM MITSUBISHI TELLING ME OF AN ISSUE THEY CALL A "PARKING BREAK" PROBLEM. I HAVE ASKED SEVERAL MECHANICS ABOUT THE POSSIBLE NEED TO REPLACE "THE PISTON ASSEMBLY OF THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER WILL BE REPLACED WITH A COUNTERMEASURE UNIT". I HAVE BEE ASSURED THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A FAILURE TO THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM. BECAUSE I NO LONGER OWN THE CAR I HAVE NOTIFIED ALLSTATE INSURANCE OF THE PRESENT RECALL. IF POSSIBLE THIS SHOULD BE AN URGENT RECALL. SADLY I HAVE LOST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND A RECORD OF 36 YEARS OF ACCIDENT FREE DRIVING. PLEASE INVESTIGATE
