The issue
On certain trucks, the cotter pin that retains the brake pedal clevis pin may not have been installed. The clevis pin connects the brake pedal to the brake foot valve; therefore, if the pin were to come loose, the driver would not be able to apply the service brakes. This could cause a vehicle crash with injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if missing, install a cotter pin in the brake pedal clevis pin.
Description (français)
Sur certains camions, la goupille fendue qui retient l'axe de chape de la pédale de freinage pourrait ne pas avoir été posée. L'axe de chape raccorde la pédale de freinage au robinet de commande au pied; donc, si l'axe se desserrait, le conducteur serait incapable d'appliquer les freins de service. Cela pourrait causer un accident et blesser quelqu'un ou entraîner des pertes de vie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter et, le cas échéant, poser une goupille fendue sur l'axe de chape de la pédale de freinage.
