THE HOSES ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PROPERLY INSTALLED.
AS A RESULT, AIR LEAKAGE COULD OCCUR.
THIS CONSTITUTES A NON-COMPLIANCE TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 106, “BRAKE HOSES”.
COMPLETE FAILURE WILL HOWEVER, ACTUATE THE TRACTOR PROTECTION VALVE AND THE TRAILER PARKING BRAKES WILL BE APPLIED AUTOMATICALLY.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
