| Defect Summary | Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks. the brake light switch and the cruise control switch are mounted in such a way as to allow moisture within the air brake system to collect inside the switches. if the moisture in the switches freezes, the brake lights may not function and the cruise control might not disengage when the brake pedal is depressed. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | If the switches freeze, the results could be no brake lights to warn following vehicles and an extended stopping distance if the cruise control does not disengage as expected when the brake pedal is pressed. | |||||||||||||||

| Defect Summary | On certain heavy duty trucks, a brass fitting connects the double check valve to the brake relay valve. with certain inputs to the vehicle, the weight of the check valve on the fitting can cause the assembly to resonate. the subject vibration can cause excessive strain levels in the fitting, which could eventually fatigue and fail. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | If the fitting breaks, the rear service brakes will cease to operate without warning, resulting in an extended stopping distance, increasing the risk of a crash. | |||||||||||||||
| Corrective Summary | Dealers will install a kit to remount the double check valve with a flexible hose on the majority of vehicles. on a small number of units with clearance issues or traction control, a kit with a new relay valve that has a built-in double check valve will be installed. owner notification began on april 18, 2003. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact international at 1-800-448-7825. | |||||||||||||||
