Dorman - First Stop Parking Brake Cable P/N:C661079
Replace a worn front parking brake cable with the Dorman parking brake cable, part number C660394 from the Dorman - First Stop line. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2004 Ford Escape and the 2001-2004 Mazda Tribute. The cable carries the pull from the parking brake control through the parking brake system, applying the brakes that hold the vehicle when it is parked.
Dorman engineered and tested this cable to replicate the original brake cable's fit, function and performance on the listed vehicles. It has a corrosion-resistant design and durable materials for added strength.
Signs your parking brake cable may need replacing include a parking brake that no longer holds, excessive lever travel, or a brake that drags or will not fully release. If the original front cable is the cause, this Dorman brake cable replaces it. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete application details.
