What’s wrong with it?
MALFUNCTION OF THE AIR BRAKE SYSTEM COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
HYUNDAI TRANSLEAD IS RECALLING 572 CONVERTER DOLLY TRAILERS MANUFACTURED FOR FEDEX GROUND AND EQUIPPED WITH CERTAIN HALDEX QUICK RELEASE VALVES (QRV).
THE RUBBER DIAPHRAGM INSIDE THE QRV MAY EXPERIENCE DELAMINATION RESULTING IN SIGNIFICANT LEVELS OF AIR PRESSURE LEAKAGE PAST AND/OR THROUGH THE DIAPHRAGM, OR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A BUBBLE IN THE DIAPHRAGM WHICH MAY TRAP AIR PRESSURE IN THE VALVE AND NOT ALLOW THE SERVICE BRAKES TO RELEASE.
