What NHTSA recorded

On certain trucks, the air suspension height control valve may not be installed correctly.

Possible consequence

In the event of a suspension air bag failure or rupture of the air line, there could be a loss of air pressure in the 'b' system air reservoir that supplies air pressure for the front steer axle brakes. This condition would increase stopping distance of the vehicle and under certain conditions could result in a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect and install a pressure protection valve if necessary. The recall began january 4 2005. Owners should contact autocar at 1-877-973-3486.
