Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
TRUCKS DO NOT COMPLY WITH FMVSS 106; THERE COULD BE ANUNCHECKED LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE IN THE BRAKES THAT COULD RESULT IN THE LOSS OFSERVICE BRAKES AND TRUCK CONTROL.
NON-DOT “PUSH-ON” TYPE HOSES WERE USED IN CERTAIN ACCESSORY NON-BRAKE AIR SYSTEMS, WITHOUT ISOLATION OF THAT SYSTEM BY A CHECK VALVE, PRESSURE PROTECTION VALVE, OR OTHER MEANS OF SYSTEM SEPARATION.

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.
