As A Result, The Anti-Wheel Lock Warning Lamp Is Not Activated.
Vehicle recall defect – A Design Deficiency Exists In The Air Dryer Piping In The Area Of The Pressure Relief Valve And Compressor Governor Control Link. Moisture Is Passed And Builds Up In This Relief Valve And Control Line. In Freezing Ambient Temperatures, This Moisture May Freeze, Allowing The Chassis Air System Pressure To Exceed 150 Psi. Excessive Air System Pressure Can Cause Separation Of Air Piping ConneCTIons And Air System Valve Failure.
Vehicle recall defect – The Flex Blade Fans On The Involved Vehicles May Develop Cracks In The Laminated Stiffener As A Result Of Fatigue During Operation. If Such A Condition Exists And The Cracks Go Undetected, Continued Operation Could Cause Pieces Of The Stiffener To Break Off.
