What’s wrong with it?
Unexpected movement when parked can increase the risk of crash.
Autocar, LLC (Autocar) is recalling certain 2008-2019 Xpeditor vehicles.
The affected vehicles are equipped with undersized brake chambers, possibly allowing the truck to roll when parked.
As a result, the vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, “Air brake systems.”
