Recall 2006196

The issue

Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 121 - Emergency Stopping Distance. An internal control and check valve within the air brake application valve assembly was configured improperly, preventing air from flowing through the brake system as designed. In the event of an emergency stop, the vehicle's stopping distance would be increased. Correction: Dealers will replace the air brake application valve assembly on C-Series vehicles and reroute the air brake lines on T-Series vehicles.

Description (français)

Certains véhicules ne satisfont pas aux exigences de la NSVAC 121 - Systèmes de freinage à air comprimé. Un clapet de non retour et de commande interne se trouvant dans le robinet de serrage des freins à air comprimé a été mal configuré, ce qui empêche l'air de circuler dans le circuit de freinage comme prévu. En cas d'arrêt d'urgence, la distance d'arrêt du véhicule serait plus importante que prévu. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le robinet de serrage des freins à air comprimé des véhicules de série C et déplacer les canalisations des freins à air comprimé des véhicules de série T.
