The issue

On certain trucks equipped with Bendix ATR-6 Antilock Traction Relay valves, in extremely cold conditions (at or below -18 degrees Celsius), internal ATR valve leakage can occur. This could cause unintended brake application, which could overheat the affected brakes and cause a fire. Also, in certain low traction conditions, unexpected brake application can cause a loss of vehicle control and a crash. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will update the cover assembly on the ATR valves.

Description (français)

Sur certains camions munis de soupapes de relais antiblocage Bendix ATR-6, lorsqu'il fait très froid (température égale ou inférieure à -18 °C), une fuite interne au niveau des soupapes ATR pourrait se produire. Cela pourrait faire en sorte que les freins se serrent subitement, ce qui pourrait faire surchauffer les freins visés et causer un incendie. De plus, dans certains conditions de faible adhérence, un serrage inattendu des freins pourrait causer une perte de contrôle du véhicule et un accident. Ces problèmes pourraient endommager des biens matériels ou blesser quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront mettre à jour le couvercle sur les soupapes ATR.
