The issue

On certain vehicles, the piston spring brake chamber may have been manufactured incorrectly and could allow air leakage into the chamber. As a result, the parking brake may not fully release, thereby causing brake drag which could result in a wheel-end fire. Should rapid air loss occur, the spring brakes would suddenly engage causing immediate brake lock-up. If this happens while the vehicle is in motion, it could result in a crash. These issues could also result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the spring brake chambers.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, les récepteurs de freinage pourraient avoir été mal fabriqués et permettre à de l'air de s'y infiltrer. En conséquence, les freins de stationnement pourraient ne pas se desserrer complètement, ce qui produirait un freinage résiduel qui pourrait causer un incendie d'extrémité de roue. En cas de perte d'air rapide, les freins s'enclencheraient subitement, ce qui causerait leur blocage immédiat. Si cela se produisait pendant que le véhicule roule, un accident pourrait survenir. Cela pourrait aussi endommager des biens matériels ou blesser quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les récepteurs de freinage.
