Recall 2009314

The issue

Certain vehicles may suffer cracking of various brake assembly components (i.e. brake cam tube mounting flanges, brake air chamber bracket, brake air chamber, brake spider). Over time, this cracking can cause a complete fracture of the cam tube, which could increase stopping distances and decrease parking brake hold capability. A reduction of braking capability could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect the rear axle brake assembly, replace cracked rear axle brake components where required, and install cam tube support brackets on all rear axle wheel ends.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, diverses pièces de frein (c.-à-d. brides de fixation de tube de came de frein, support de récepteur de freinage, récepteur de freinage, porte-segments) pourraient se fissurer. À la longue, ce fissurage pourrait provoquer le bris du tube de came, ce qui pourrait augmenter les distances de freinage et diminuer la capacité de maintien du frein de stationnement. Une diminution de la capacité de freinage pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident endommageant des biens matériels, blessant quelqu'un ou entraînant des pertes de vies. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les freins d'essieu arrière, remplacer les pièces des freins d'essieu arrière fissurées, le cas échéant, et poser des supports de tube de came sur toutes les roues d'essieu arrière.
