What the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration knows about this vehicle: every recall, every consumer complaint, every defect investigation, every NCAP crash test. Sourced directly from NHTSA data feeds.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CLASS 8 HEAVY DUTY TRUCKS. THE AIR SUSPENSION CONTROL VALVE SUPPLY LINE WAS NOT PLUMBED THROUGH AN AIR PRESSURE PROTECTION VALVE. IN THE EVENT OF A FAILURE, THERE WOULD BE LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE IN THE 'B' SYSTEM AIR RESERVOIR THAT SUPPLIES AIR PRESSURE FOR THE FRONT STEER AXLE BRAKES.
RiskTHIS CONDITION WOULD RESULT IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES.
FixDEALERS WILL INSTALL THE NECESSARY AIR PRESSURE PROTECTION VALVE.
THE BENDIX MV-2 PARKING CONTROL VALVE INSTALLED IN VEHICLES WITHOUT A DESICCANT STYLE AIR DRYER MAY EXPERIENCE A SEAL FAILURE. THIS FAILURE MAY ALLOW THE VALVE TO MOVE FROM THE PARK POSITION TO THE RELEASE POSITION, ALLOWING THE PARKING BRAKES TO RELEASE.
RiskRELEASE OF THE PARKING BRAKES WHILE THE VEHICLE ISUNATTENDED OR WITHOUT WARNING COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
FixREBUILD THE BENDIX MV-2 PARKING CONTROL VALVE.
