What NHTSA recorded

Possible consequence

The diameter of the hose affects the fittings which may allow air to leak from the brakes and create the potential for a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect the air brake hoses and, if necessary, replace the hoses. The recall began on february 22, 2008. Owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners may contact kenworth at 1-425-828-5440 or peterbilt at 1-940-591-4196.
