What was wrong

Defect

Meritor WABCO Vehicle Control Systems (Meritor WABCO) is recalling certain Wabco Quick Release Valves with Double Check manufactured February 6, 2013, to April 19, 2014. In the affected valves, the rubber diaphragm may be damaged by sharp edges on the valve seat ribs, reducing the available air pressure in the air tanks.

Risk

The reduced air pressure levels may reduce braking performance and/or the parking brakes could reapply, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

MeritorWABCO has notified affected OEM customers, which will conduct the notification and remedy campaign. The recall is expected to begin during December 2014. Owners may contact Meritor WABCO at 1-248-435-8001. Meritor WABCO's identification number for this recall is C15AA.
