| The 2 rear air brake hoses to the air canisters on a 2004 freightliner rv chassis have rubbed together enough to make a pin hole leak in one of them and a partial wear-through in the other. with a warning from other users on an rv forum, a physical inspection caught this problem before a brake failure happened and possible property damage or loss of life could occur. both of these hoses must be replaced and the hoses must be re-routed to keep this from recurring. *tr | |||
