NHTSA recall campaign
16V489000
What was wrong
Defect
Brenner Tank, LLC (Brenner) is recalling certain model year 2015-2017 Liquid Tank trailers manufactured March 14, 2013, to March 30, 2016, equipped with certain Bendix SR-5 spring brake valves. These valves may have been improperly machined which may cause a delay of application of the spring brakes while parking.
Risk
If there is a delay of the spring brake application, the trailer may roll away after it has decoupled from the tractor, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Manufacturer remedy
The remedy for this recall is still under development. An interim notice was sent to owners on August 22, 2016. Owners may contact Brenner Customer Service Department at 1-800-558-8265.
