2005 Mustang Parking Brake by harden92

During cold weather, it seems that the parking brake freezes and the rear brakes drag for a bit. I took the car to the Ford dealership and they could find nothing wrong with the rear brakes or parking brake. Keep in mind, this visit was in 2007 and I just found a TSB issued in January, 2006 that apparently addresses this problem. If anyone has experienced this, or has a full summary of the TSB, I would appreciate any help!!
NHTSA Item Number: 10019962
Service Bulletin Num : 0654
Component: PARKING BRAKE:CONVENTIONAL:MECHANICAL:LINKAGE AND CABLE
 
Thanks!

TSB 06-5-4
03/20/06
PARK BRAKE CABLE FREEZING/REAR BRAKES DRAGGING
FORD:
2005-2006 Mustang
ISSUE
Some 2005-2006 Mustangs built prior to 10/1/2005 may exhibit park brake cables that freeze in cold weather due to water intrusion, and subsequently not release. Under some conditions this could lead to dragging rear brakes. The rear sealing boot on the cable (located at the rear caliper attachment) could deteriorate prematurely which may permit water intrusion. In freezing temperatures this could bind the cable inside the casing, and not allow tension to be released from the caliper.
ACTION
Inspect the park brake cable and system components. If the rubber sealing boots show signs of deterioration, replace both rear park brake cables.

Thank you so much! Hopefully this won't cost too much to fix...

It should be free, assuming this is the problem.

Unfortunately the warranty was up just a few miles ago...

Yes, but TSBs are normally no-charge repairs.

NO! They are NOT!
TSBs are NEVER no-charge repairs. Unless the vehicle is under warranty.
 
You are confusing recalls with TSBs.

Really, I thought if a TSB was issued for your car, and you came into a dealer complaining of the problem addressed by the TSB, it would be taken care of, gratis (regardless of whether the warranty had expired). I realize this is the case with recalls, but I thought TSBs were handled the same way.
 
If not, my bad. (On reflection, I've never had a TSB performed on my cars out of warranty.)
