What NHTSA recorded

On certain heavy duty class 8 trucks, there is a slack on the brake assembly's adjuster and it is interfering with the axle housing.

Possible consequence

This interference leads to a reduction in braking capabilities on the right side of the vehicle as the brake "shoes" become worn, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

The rear brake assemblies were replaced. All vehicles have been repaired.
