Recall 2009145

The issue

On certain vehicles, the caliper mounting fasteners attaching the air disc brake caliper assembly to the torque plate may have received insufficient tightening torque during the assembly process. Insufficient torque may allow the caliper mounting fasteners and/or the caliper itself to become loose. This could cause the brake on the affected wheel end to become inoperable. Extended stopping distance could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace caliper mounting fasteners and inspect the caliper assembly.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, les dispositifs qui retiennent l'étrier des freins à disques à air comprimé sur la bride de fixation pourraient ne pas avoir été assez serrés lors du montage. Un couple insuffisant pourrait permettre aux dispositifs de fixation d'étrier ou à l'étrier lui-même de se desserrer. Cela pourrait faire en sorte que le frein de la roue visée cesse de fonctionner. Une distance de freinage supérieure pourrait provoquer un accident, endommager des biens matériels, blesser quelqu'un ou entraîner des pertes de vies. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les dispositifs de fixation d'étrier et inspecter l'étrier.
