BRAKES:AIR SYSTEMS:AIR SUPPLY SYSTEM

Recalled: June 22, 1994 ~37 units affected 94V109

Description

THE AIR COMPRESSOR AIR SUPPLY LINE IS ROUTED FROM THE COMPRESSOR OVER THE TOP OF THE FRAME RAIL, UNDER THE BRAKE HYDROMAX, AND DOWN TO THE AIR SYSTEM. THIS LINE CAN CONTACT THE STEEL SECTION OF THE HYDROMAX HYDRAULIC SUPPLY LINE, CAUSING A LEAK TO OCCUR IN THE HYDRAULIC LINE, ALLOWING HYDRAULIC FLUID TO LEAK ON THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL AND BRAKE ASSEMBLY.

Injuries / Consequence

THE LEAK ALLOWS ENOUGH FLUID TO BE PUMPED FROM THE SYSTEM TO ELIMINATE POWER STEERING ASSIST. THE ELECTRONIC SECONDARY BRAKE PUMP WILL ENGAGE, BUT THE LEAK WILL RESULT IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE.

Remedy

DEALERS WILL INSTALL A CUSHION CLIP ON THE TOP LEFT FRAME RAIL SEPARATING AND ELIMINATING ANY CONTACT BETWEEN THE STEEL JACKETED AIR LINE AND THE METAL SECTION OF THE HYDRAULIC LINE.
