Description (français)

Il se peut que les freins d’une ou des deux roues de l’essieu arrière du train d’essieu en tandem soient inutilisables parce que les cames en S ont été mal installées. Une telle situation peut entraîner une augmentation des distances de freinage et conséquemment des risques d’accident. Correction: Les véhicules devront être inspectés et les cames en S installées correctement s’il y a lieu.
