Recall 2012165

The issue

Certain vehicles equipped with 15-foot coiled trailer air lines fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 121 - Air Brake Systems. Specifically, the trailer brake actuation timing slightly exceeds the allowable limit, which could result in less efficient braking performance. Correction: Dealers will install a relay valve.
